JOHOR BARU – Barisan Nasional (BN), which won the Johor election last night, is committed to reforming the state administration as well as embracing a new political narrative in Johor, said Johor BN chairman and menteri besar designate Datuk Hasni Mohammad.
Hasni said the state government to be formed will continue to focus on economic development, championing the underprivileged and empowering youth.
He said the Ikhtiar BN Johor (Johor BN initiative) will be implemented in stages after the Johor 2023 budget.
“I want to call upon the people of Johor, regardless of whether they supported BN or not, to take care of each other, to help prosper and protect our home, Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT).
“Remember, no political ideology, politician, or political party is bigger and more important than JDT…now is the time for us to build a more prosperous Johor together,” he said at a press conference after BN’s victory was confirmed.
Hasni also expressed his appreciation to the people of Johor for coming out to vote and choosing BN to helm the new state government.
He said the mandate given proved that Johoreans want stability and a bright future.
“Today is the first day of this great journey ahead. I want to quote Nelson Mandela by saying ‘we never lose. Either we win, or we learn’.
“Today, the people of Johor have celebrated democracy and exercised their right, the people have chosen future stability and have unanimously chosen BN to secure the prosperity of our home, JDT,” he said. – Bernama, March 13, 2022
