PKR leader Shamsul Iskandar Akin has deleted his Johor election campaign video, which played on the Islamic talkin ritual, a recitation reminding the recently deceased upon their burial to remember their faith.
In the viral video, Shamsul told voters not to be afraid when approached by BN, Perikatan Nasional, and Parti Bersama Malaysia, as they, too, are just God’s creatures.
“When you are given RM100, ask for RM500. When you are given coffee and tea, ask for Milo, milk, and rice enough for a month.
“But when they ask you to vote for them, answer clearly, ‘We will still vote for Harapan’,” he said.
Former finance minister Lim Guan Eng said many Johor voters told him that while the state experienced economic progress, the benefits were not reaching ordinary people.
At a ceramah in Batu Pahat yesterday, Lim said rising rent and food costs, particularly in southern Johor such as Tebrau and Johor Bahru, had made them increasingly unaffordable.
Lim Guan Eng At the macro level, Lim said Johor lacked a bold, inclusive long-term development vision, with growth concentrated in the south while other districts were left behind.
At the micro level, he said poor economic management had worsened the problem, with the rising cost of living in Johor Bahru leaving many ordinary Johoreans unable to enjoy parts of their own city. - Mkini
