Ahmad Farhan Tasked With Reclaiming Indera Mahkota Parliamentary Seat For PKR

KUANTAN, April 11 -- Pahang Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) State Leadership Council chairman Datuk Ahmad Farhan Fauzi says he has been entrusted by PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to reclaim the Indera Mahkota parliamentary seat in the 16th General Election (GE16). Ahmad Farhan, who is also the political secretary to the Prime Minister, said the entrustment was a major responsibility that must be shouldered together. “Without the cooperation of all branch members, it would be difficult for us to move forward,” he said when speaking at the Indera Mahkota PKR Division Annual General Meeting here. Meanwhile, Ahmad Farhan, who is also the Indera Mahkota Division chief, said PKR membership in the area had now reached 6,666, with an increase of 1,962 members, and was targeting 10,000 members before the PKR National Congress begins. He said the party remained committed to recapturing the parliamentary seat, based on PKR’s record of victories in the constituency in 2008, 2013 and 2018, which would help the party remain in power in GE16. In GE15, Datuk Seri Saifuddin Abdullah defended the Indera Mahkota parliamentary seat under the Bersatu banner with a majority of 8,399 votes, defeating three challengers from Pakatan Harapan, Barisan Nasional and Pejuang. Saifuddin had previously won the Indera Mahkota parliamentary seat representing PKR in 2018. Meanwhile, Ahmad Farhan warned parties attempting to tarnish the image of the party, including those from within its own ranks, as such actions could weaken the party. “Attacking the PKR president is like attacking all of us, and we will oppose any efforts that could divide the party,” he said.

“There will be no GE16 in one, two months” – PM Anwar

IPOH: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has hinted that he will not hold the 16th General Election (GE16) in the near future. Instead, he said, the priority now is to face the economic crisis caused by the conflict in West Asia. According to him, the current oil price surge crisis is an economic reality, not a political one. "This is not about political battles, being enemies with each other. I won't have an election in a month or two, be patient for a while. Tomorrow is election time, let's fight. Now it's work. Enough of politics, wake up, save our country," he said. He said this when speaking at the opening ceremony of the Perak State Civil Society Programme (PMR) 2026 at Bulatan Sultan Azlan Shah Meru, Ipoh on Saturday. According to him, the current situation requires all parties, including leaders and the people, to focus on efforts to strengthen the economy and maintain national security. He said that the current international conflict is also putting pressure on global oil prices, logistics costs and the supply chain, which ultimately affects the people. --ASTRO AWANI
