State polls: Selangorians express unwavering support for PH

SHAH ALAM - Selangorians have expressed their desire for Pakatan Harapan (PH) to continue its reign in the state as the state election is apporaching.

This is after the residents here expressed that the two-term government has never failed to fulfil its promises and deliver assistance to its people to ease their burdens.

Nasi Lemak seller Mohd Zaki Jaafar, 45 from Meru said PH would win as there have been a lot of progressive improvements during its tenure in the state.

"I see a lot of progressive improvement and caretaker Selangor Menteri Besar (MB) Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari has mooted programmes and benefits such as Menu Rahmah.

"I think this attracts the lower income group, such as the Bottom 40 (B40) group, to support him, and my opinion is that they can improve more programmes for the people," he said.

Commenting further Meru resident, 81-year-old retiree Neo Soon Tiong also expressed that PH can win Selangor because it has more educated people, hence they can't be easily influenced by Pas people.

"This is because we have seen Pas supporters condemn the opponents, but PH have strategies and they are united.

"They will win, but now we see how much they will win because Selangor also has many Bumiputeras, and we don’t know their thoughts.

"Maybe they might have been brainwashed by Pas," he said.

He added that the performance of PH so far has been good; however, some promises have yet to be kept.

"PH fields quality candidates to set a better future, as they have a lot of programmes, but it will be difficult to push forward because we are not sure how much we can win in Selangor," he said.

Meanwhile, outsource mortgage adviser Anandhi Muniandy, 45, Meru resident said PH has strong chances of winning as there are many initiatives taken for the people of Selangor.

"I can see something better coming," she said.

She also wished PH would improve the rising cost of goods and everyday items as well as make education more accessible for children in the state.

Retail assistant Komala Devi Thinakaran, 21, from Meru is positive that PH will win, and their performance was better than before.

She also added that PH can improve the education issues because nowadays most of them lack education; hence, they should improve the educational system in this country.
