Tengku Zafrul urges PH to intensify voter outreach in final stretch of Melaka polls
Voter reception is what matters, but we must maintain this momentum until the very end and continue working hard to meet as many voters as possible - November 12, 2026

PAKATAN Harapan (PH) must step up efforts to reach voters in the final days of the Melaka state election campaign, with PKR leader Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz citing encouraging feedback from the Paya Rumput constituency.

He said the remaining two days were crucial for candidates and party machinery to strengthen voter engagement and maintain momentum ahead of polling day.

“Based on the reports I have received so far, praise be to God, the response in Paya Rumput, for example, has been positive.

“Voter reception is what matters, but we must maintain this momentum until the very end and continue working hard to meet as many voters as possible,” he told Sinar Harian.

Zafrul, a PKR central leadership council member and the Prime Minister's Senior Political Adviser, was speaking after joining PH candidate for Paya Rumput, Datuk Azman Abidin, better known as Tok Man, on a walkabout to meet voters.

He said sustaining voter engagement required collective effort from the entire party machinery, rather than relying solely on individual candidates.

Zafrul also cited residents' positive feedback about Azman, whom he described as approachable and committed to engaging with the public.

“I personally know him as someone who works hard.

“I am confident he will bring the same attitude and passion to Paya Rumput,” he said. - November 12, 2026
