SHAH ALAM – Selangor Barisan Nasional (BN) needs to recapture the state after experiencing the pain of being in the opposition for three terms, said state BN chairman Tan Sri Noh Omar.

He said the situation became more difficult especially after BN failed to form the federal government following the 14th general election, when no provisions were channelled to opposition state assemblymen to help the people.

“Previously, even though we were the opposition in the state government, we were in power at the federal level. Our assemblymen did not get state allocations, but the central government gave them to us. So we didn’t really feel it.

“But when we lost at both the central and state levels, it was really a bitter experience. So we are here today with the hope to rise up again to win back Selangor in GE15,” he said in his speech at the Selangor BN convention here today.

Noh said BN component party members must be sincere in continuing the struggle because it is not easy to win.

“If we are sincere in our struggle, remain united, and stick to the motto of stability for prosperity, God willing, we will continue to rise and have a chance to win the upcoming general election,” he said. – Bernama, July 31, 2022
