MELAKA: Pakatan Harapan (PH) Malacca chairman Adly Zahari remains focused on defending the coalition’s five existing seats and securing additional victories, declining to be drawn into Barisan Nasional’s (BN) projection that its cooperation with Perikatan Nasional (PN) could deliver 25 seats in Saturday’s state election.

He said BN was entitled to its own assessment, but PH would continue concentrating on constituencies it had identified as priorities in the final stretch of campaigning.

“That is up to BN and its own assessment. As I mentioned earlier, we will defend our five key seats while focusing on additional constituencies.

“At the same time, we will try to win as many seats as possible in this election,” he told reporters after the Jelajah Harapan Melaka Rumah Kita grand finale in Hang Tuah Jaya on Thursday night.
