"In conjunction with the state elections, we are making a difference by featuring the hottest Menteri Besar candidate in the market. Selangor is considered as a state with the most fierce competition and all eyes will be on him (Amirudin).

"Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim had announced that Amirudin will be defending the Sungai Tua state seat and if PH wins in Selangor, he will once again be appointed as Menteri Besar,”Zamri said, today.

He said although several surveys conducted by research firms found that PH and Amirudin have an advantage and the support of Malay voters, some also expected that Perikatan Nasional (PN) will bring a fierce competition.

Because of that, he said that Town Hall Rakyat will for the first time provide a platform to candidates in the state elections.

"Sinar Harian truly hopes that the people of Selangor will come down to the Karangkraf Complex in Shah Alam to be with the PH's Selangor Menteri Besar candidate.

"With a different concept from the state elections campaign stage, Town Hall gives people the opportunity to raise questions related to the issues and problems they are facing to be answered by the caretaker Menteri Besar," he said.
