In a Facebook post, the Johor Bahru MP also shared a list of candidates for the branch’s top posts and the leadership of its women and youth wings.

“To remain relevant, we need to focus on making an impact, setting the right priorities, solving real issues and steadfastly upholding the party’s principles and values,” he said.

Akmal Nasrullah, the deputy energy transition and water transformation minister, also said that PKR must stay focused, especially in preparing for the next general election.

Akmal Nasrullah, who first assumed the position of Johor Bahru PKR branch head in 2014, said ensuring victory for the party in Johor Bahru back then was not easy.

“It was a suicide mission at the time, but it became a mission completed, and the rest is history. The bigger challenge came after the victory – the people’s hopes and expectations continued to rise,” he said.
