BN’s chances of winning Melaka polls looking strong, says Ab Rauf

MASJID TANAH: Barisan Nasional has a strong chance of winning the Melaka election, Datuk Seri Dr Ab Rauf Yusoh said.

The Melaka BN chairman said his confidence was based on current political developments, which he believed had given the coalition an advantage with just 48 hours remaining before polling day on Saturday.

He said the political issues that had emerged could help BN gain voters’ confidence and secure another mandate to govern Melaka.

“Yes, I believe BN has a very strong chance.

“Amid some political confusion in Putrajaya, with current issues that should not have arisen during the election period, the people are more inclined to place their trust in Barisan Nasional to lead Melaka,” he said.

In a related development, Ab Rauf, who is also the BN candidate for Tanjung Bidara, said the local community had responded positively to the coalition’s campaign efforts in the constituency.
