Slim by-election: BN's campaign in 'fifth gear' - Zahid

Malaysiakini

SLIME POLLS | Barisan Nasional (BN) is already in ‘fifth gear’ in its campaign for the Slim state by-election, said BN chairperson  Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
Ahmad Zahid said BN's candidate Mohd Zaidi Aziz, 43, has been instructed to intensify his campaign and visit all houses in the Slim area.
He noted that the challenges from independent candidates at the by-election were different from Chini by-election, in July.
“It is quite different from the independent candidate in the Chini by-election because at that time the candidate had left Bersatu and did not have any support.
"However, all the constraints and problems in Slim will be faced head-on because the entire top leadership of Umno and BN have shown their commitment to ensuring victory to the BN candidate," he told reporters at a meet and greet programme in Besout 3 yesterday.
The Slim state by-election on Aug 29 will witness BN’s Mohd Zaidi and two independent candidates - Amir Khusyairi, of the yet-to-be registered Parti Pejuang Tanahair (Pejuang), 38, and S Santhasekaran, 44 - contesting in a three-cornered fight.
On Aug 7, former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad announced the formation of a new party known as Pejuang, which is not aligned either to Pakatan Harapan or Perikatan Nasional and with Mukhriz Mahathir as its president.
Amir Khusyairi is, however, contesting with the full support of Harapan component parties DAP, PKR and Amanah.
Yesterday, Pejuang pro-tem leaders submitted an application to the Registrar of Societies (RoS) to register the party.
