The Keadilan party or PKR has the intention to field 72 parliamentary candidates in the peninsula for the coming general election with many new faces and some heavyweights like Anwar Ibrahim confirming they will fight it out in difficult constituencies.
The list of 72 candidates was announced at a party event in Ampang last night where a large crowd gathered to greet the PKR leaders and show support for the party in the constituency where former Minister Zuraida Kamarudin jumped ship to join the PN in 2020.
Candidates signed loyalty pledges before party president Anwar Ibrahim and his deputy, Rafizi Ramli. There is an unspecified bond, and a promise to return candidates’ deposit fee and a mandatory “pay cut” the parliamentary candidates will donate to the party, a quantum of which was not mentioned if they are elected.
