Pejuang eyes 42 seats, solo battle in Johor elections

Parti Pejuang Tanah Air (Pejuang)'s electoral debut will see the Bersatu-splinter contesting 42 seats in the upcoming Johor state elections.

Johor Pejuang chief Sharuddin Md Salleh said the party has previously declared it would not be aligning with any pact and as such would be contesting on its own.

"The chosen candidates will be among youths, women, professionals, civil society groups, former state assemblypersons, former civil servants, business people.

"Names of the candidates will be finalised soon," said Sharuddin, as quoted by Harian Metro.

The Sri Gading MP added that priority for the seats and candidates will also be evaluated based on the level of Malay voters in each constituency.

At the same time, Sharuddin, a former Jorak assemblyperson while in Umno and Bersatu, said Pejuang remains open to cooperating with any parties in the state elections.

As a start, he said Johor Pejuang will be touring the state on Saturdays to introduce its logo, colours, and flags to the voters.

"So that more people will know about us," added the former deputy minister.

Formed by former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad after a fallout with Bersatu, Pejuang was formally registered as a political party last July.

Since then, Pejuang has sat out of fielding candidates during the last Sarawak and Malacca state elections. - Mkini
