MORE than 9,000 delegates are expected to vote in person in the upcoming People's Justice Party (PKR) central leadership election for the 2025–2028 term, set to take place next week.

PKR Secretary-General Dr Fuziah Salleh also revealed that over 20,000 delegates would be participating via online voting, with the election scheduled for 23 May.

"This time, the number of delegates voting in person is high, so all eligible delegates will cast their votes physically on the day," Bernama cited here saying at a press conference following a visit to a subsidised cooking oil packaging company.

She was responding to queries regarding the total number of delegates expected to vote in the party’s leadership election.

Fuziah explained that the central leadership election would involve both physical and online voting methods by delegates from the Central Congress, Angkatan Muda Keadilan (AMK) Youth Congress, and the Women’s Congress, with voting held at the Berjaya Waterfront Hotel and Danga Bay Convention Centre in Johor Bahru.

She expressed confidence that the election would proceed smoothly, citing PKR’s previous efforts to ensure electoral integrity by appointing an independent third party to audit the election system.

"PKR always ensures that the election system adheres to international standards," she said.

"We had appointed foreign auditors previously, as well as conducted internal audits, and they found the system to be in line with international standards because we use blockchain technology," she added. - May 14, 2025
