PETALING JAYA: Johor PKR organising secretary and Parit Sulong division chief Hasni Abas has been announced as the party’s candidate for the Sembrong parliamentary seat in the 15th general election (GE15).

PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli said Hasni, 60, is a Malay language and education activist with a background in literature and political science.

“We took into account several factors, including how Sembrong has a high number of Felda voters and has never been won by PKR,” he told a press conference at the PKR headquarters here.

Former Sembrong MP Hishammuddin Hussein has hinted that he would be defending the seat which he has held since 2004. - FMT
