ADS

Pakatan Harapan is making preparations to face the Tanjung Piai by-election including holding meetings and updating its logistics.

Amanah deputy president Salahuddin Ayub said he and Johor Menteri Besar Dr Sahruddin Jamal will hold a briefing for the Harapan machinery in Pontian tomorrow.

"Our friends in Harapan have begun opening their election centres and offices. We are just waiting for the EC to announce the date for nomination and polling.

“I chaired a meeting at Tanjung Piai last week and almost every night we hold meetings at ballot box units for the machinery to tie up loose ends,” he told reporters in Kluang today.

He earlier launched a new goat breeding stock and opened Mardi’s innovation and research excellence centre.

Salahuddin, who is also agriculture and agro-based industries minister, expressed optimism about his meeting with Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng recently on Budget 2020.

"We talked about certain sectors in the ministry that needed an increase in budget.

"I am confident that my meeting with the finance minister will bear fruit but of the figure, we have to wait till Budget time,” he said. - Bernama
