Ex Umno Warlord Noh Omar Says Malay Votes Will Let Perikatan Take Selangor Easily

Citing “ummah unity”, the ex-Tanjong Karang MP recounted his previous efforts to develop Muafakat Nasional into a platform for Malay votes, and said PN could replicate this to win at least 33 seats from the 56 available and form the state government.
(MMO) – Former Selangor Umno chief Tan Sri Noh Omar expressed confidence last night that Perikatan Nasional (PN) could comfortably win the state election on the back of Malay support.
Citing “ummah unity”, the ex-Tanjong Karang MP recounted his previous efforts to develop Muafakat Nasional into a platform for Malay votes, and said PN could replicate this to win at least 33 seats from the 56 available and form the state government.
MN was the informal charter signed between Umno and PAS before the two eventually fell out due to the latter’s decision to join PN with Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) over the former. Addressing around 500 attendees at a PN Dialogue Session at Sungai Besar here, he said Umno’s previous strength in the state had come from its northern belt where Malay majority seats contributed to the party’s success.
“According to the strategy like the previous Muafakat Nasional that we had proposed, we can win at least 33 state seats. But if we go with a three-way fight, we will lose.
“But today, there will be only direct fights between PN and Pakatan Harapan with Barisan Nasional. With this, I’m confident that the PN will win in the upcoming state election,” he said.
