Kimanis by-election post mortem will identify youth support issues: Syed Saddiq

MALACCA: The post-mortem on the Kimanis parliamentary by-election is important because from it we will be able to understand the issues of youth support for Pakatan Harapan (PH) and find ways to regain their support, Bersatu Youth Wing (Armada) chief Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman (pix) said.

The Youth and Sports Minister hoped following discussion with all PH leaders at the post mortem, more effective formulas and strategies would be established to win back the support of young people.

“I think all the leaders will be present to discuss this matter at length. It is crucial to have the post mortem for us to investigate and understand the problem and what we need to do together,“ he said, here today.

Earlier, he attended a Bersatu Family Day at Bandar Hilir here. Also present were Malacca state executive councillors Datuk Mohd Rafiq Naizamohideen and Datuk Noor Effendi Ahmad.

Yesterday, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad was reported to have said that PH would conduct a post mortem to identify the exact cause of the defeat and how the people of Sabah view the government. - Bernama
