PKR and PAS are facing off in one parliamentary seat in Sabah and six state seats in Penang, Selangor, Johor and Terengganu.
The two opposition parties will vie for the Labuan parliamentary seat, the Sungai Acheh state assembly seat in Penang, Kota Damansara state seat in Selangor, Panti in Johor and Kota Putera, Bukit Besi and Seberang Takir state seats in Terengganu.
In Labuan, PKR is fielding Ibrahim Menudin, while PAS' candidate is Hadnan Mohamad.
They are contending with newcomer Rosman Isli from Umno. In 2008, Umno's Yusof Mahal took the seat by a huge majority.
"There is no compromise, we are fighting each other. We cannot withdraw since we've already filed our nomination papers, and if we withdraw, we will lose our deposit," said Ibrahim, according to The Star Online.
Ibrahim, one of PKR's new recruits with a corporate background, is also going for the Bongawan state seat under the Kimanisparliamentary constituency.
Over in Penang, it is noted that PKR and PAS are clashing in Sungai Acheh.
PKR has fielded Badrul Hisham Shaharin - or better known as Chegubard - whereas PAS' candidate is Mohd Yusni Mat Piah.
The incumbent for the seat is Umno's Mahmud Zakaria. He had previously won the seat by a razor-thin majority of 250 votes in 2008.
