PETALING JAYA, Nov 13 — Former Padang Rengas MP Nazri Aziz wants to contest the parliamentary seat again at the 16th general election (GE16), insisting it remains a Barisan Nasional (BN) stronghold.

According to Free Malaysia Today (FMT), the four-term former MP, who still heads the Umno division, said he intended to return to Parliament after completing his diplomatic service in the United States.

“That is a BN seat. Find another seat,” he was quoted as saying, when asked whether Perikatan Nasional (PN) would seek to defend the constituency in GE16.

“I am still the division chief and intend to contest the parliamentary seat.”
