Melaka PRN: PH to abolish seven appointed state assembly positions
According to Adly, this proposal aligns with the ‘Melaka Rumah Kita’ (Melaka Our Home) aspiration - November 12, 2026

PAKATAN Harapan (PH) will revoke the appointments of seven State Legislative Assembly members (ADUNs) in Melaka, should it be given the mandate to form the state government this Saturday.

Melaka PH Chairman Adly Zahari stated that the cost savings resulting from the revocation of these appointments would be channelled toward two key initiatives: homeownership assistance for the youth and support for young entrepreneurs.

According to him, this measure is part of PH’s commitment to ensuring that state government expenditure is utilised to meet the needs of the people, particularly the younger generation.

“If we are given the mandate, PH will revoke the seven appointed ADUNs and channel the resulting savings toward homeownership assistance for the youth, as well as support for young entrepreneurs.

“We are aware that in Melaka, there are seven ADUNs whose appointments were approved by the State Legislative Assembly (DUN).

“The savings from this revocation will be directed toward two areas: first, helping the youth own residential homes, and second, assisting young entrepreneurs in the state of Melaka,” he said.

According to Adly, this proposal aligns with the ‘Melaka Rumah Kita’ (Melaka Our Home) aspiration, which outlines three core pillars and 12 priorities aimed at addressing the daily needs of the people.

He stated that key areas of focus include the provision of affordable housing, easily accessible welfare assistance, increasing workers' incomes, and facilitating access to capital and support for small-scale traders.

“Government administrative processes need to be simplified, and traffic congestion on major roads must be addressed.

“Our candidates are prepared to bring these issues to the State Legislative Assembly (DUN) sessions, secure action from the relevant agencies, and keep residents informed of any developments,” he said. – November 12, 2026
