Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim today confirmed he will be defending Arau under the Perikatan Nasional ticket in the 15th General Election (GE15), following Barisan Nasional’s move to drop him as a candidate.
Shahidan said he believed that PN was the right platform to unite Umno, Pas and Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu).
“I will stand as a candidate for a coalition that will be able to unite Umno, Pas and Bersatu which share common struggles for race, religion and country,” he told reporters at his service centre in Arau today. – NST
