NIBONG TEBAL: Pakatan Harapan candidate for the Sungai Bakap by-election Dr Joohari Ariffin has a chance to disrupt the status quo and recapture the Sg Bakap state seat, say analysts.
"Thirdly, considering the states governed by Perikatan, there has been no significant progress or initiatives that could rival those under the unity government, including in Sabah and Sarawak. "Besides, if we look at the history of Sungai Bakap in the three previous GEs, the actual competition was between PKR and Barisan Nasional , not with PAS. PAS did not even give PKR competition before,” he said.
Political analyst Prof Dr Jayum Jawan expressed confidence that Joohari, a former teacher, could break the status quo of the seat. "It is between PKR and Bersatu . A win for PKR and PH will energise Malay support towards these two. This battleground underscores the shift in Malay support,” the Universiti Putra Malaysia Political Science lecturer told Bernama.
