PAKATAN Harapan (PH) is urging voters in Negeri Sembilan to scrutinise its manifesto for the state election, which focuses on addressing the needs of all segments of society, particularly the middle-income M40 and lower-income B40 groups.

Negeri Sembilan PH chairman and caretaker Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun said the coalition’s leadership had demonstrated a strong commitment towards protecting the interests and welfare of the people.

"Of course, we hope they will look at and carefully study the PH manifesto.

"What is important is the people and what we want to provide for them. Previously, our focus was limited to the B40 group, but it has now been expanded to include the middle-income group so that everyone can collectively enjoy overall public well-being," he said during a door-to-door campaign at Ladang Sekang Linggi on Tuesday.

PH has outlined 10 key commitments under its manifesto, themed "Kekal Harapan", including expanding education-related initiatives to benefit the M40 group.

Aminuddin said PH leaders and candidates are currently focused on explaining the manifesto’s offers and commitments to voters.

He said PH’s experience in governing Negeri Sembilan since 2018 demonstrated the coalition’s determination to fulfil the promises outlined in its previous manifestos.

On his campaign efforts, Aminuddin, who is also Port Dickson MP and PH candidate for the Linggi state seat, said the campaign has been progressing smoothly and that he intends to meet all voters in the constituency.

"The campaign momentum is good. Some residents have asked us to resolve several minor issues such as drainage problems, leaking house roofs and stagnant water in their compounds," he said. - July 21, 2026
