Nurul Izzah Harapan Should Prepare To Lose Two More Ges

---

Permatang Pauh MP Nurul Izzah Anwar said Pakatan Harapan should expect to lose another two general elections before having a chance at winning.
In an interview with Sinar Harian, Nurul Izzah (above) said it would take time to craft a new "product" for the public, especially those who are unhappy with Harapan's short stint in Putrajaya.
"I believe it is not easy for Harapan to win the next election and we have to be prepared to lose two more rounds before we can see some positive impact and acceptance by the rakyat.
"I am very realistic because we need time to show the people we are a different product. (Voters), including myself, are still traumatised with what happened during Harapan's 22-month administration," she added.
Nurul Izzah, who has been politically active since she was a teenager, said she predicted Harapan to suffer losses during the next general election but so too will Umno.
The key to this was fence-sitters who she believed did not turn up to vote during the Malacca and Johor polls recently.
Permatang Pauh MP Nurul Izzah AnwarUmno and its BN coalition won both elections handsomely, albeit with less than 50 percent of the vote share.
"Perhaps Umno and BN feel confident but that is not guaranteed (for the next general election) as the fence-sitters have not turned up in force.
"During the Malacca and Johor elections, we had not entered the 'transition to endemic' phase yet.
"When all economic sectors are re-opened, surely the voters will turn up in droves. I'm sure all MPs will be afraid," she said.
Nurul Izzah will not be contesting during the upcoming PKR leadership polls and will instead focus on wooing fence-sitters. - Mkini
