JOHOR BAHRU: Johor PAS has announced its intention to contest in 19 parliamentary and 40 state seats in the 14th general election (GE14).
State PAS commissioner and Puteri Wangsa assemblyman Abdullah Husin said this was more than the eight parliamentary and 31 state seats it had contested in the last general election (GE13).
“This is the highest number of seats that Johor PAS is contesting in the state,” he told reporters here last night.
In GE13, PAS won only four state seats: Puteri Wangsa, Parit Yaani, Maharani and Sungai Abong.
It was left with three state seats after Aminolhuda Hassan, who won the Parit Yaani seat, quit the party to join Amanah following internal strife in PAS.
