MELAKA, Nov 13 (Bernama) -- Melaka Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Adly Zahari has expressed confidence that young voters will support the coalition in the 16th Melaka Election this Saturday, citing their emphasis on integrity, transparency and good governance.

He said a study showed that 68 per cent of young people in Melaka were concerned about issues related to transparency, integrity and good governance, which he believed aligned with PH’s principles.

“Leadership that prioritises transparency will certainly appeal to young voters.

“We hope young voters recognise that the outcome of this state election is about their future,” he told reporters at a press conference at the PH operations centre in Bukit Baru today.

Adly said he believed young voters would choose leaders based on trustworthiness rather than sentiment.

Meanwhile, he also thanked Melaka voters living outside the state, including those returning from New Zealand and France, for travelling home to cast their ballots.

He said their commitment reflected their attachment to Melaka and their determination to fulfil their civic responsibility.

PH is contesting 24 of the 28 state assembly seats in the election. For the latest news on the state polls, visit https://election.bernama.com/prn/melaka/2026/.
