KUALA LUMPUR: The machinery of all component parties in the unity government will be fully activated during the Mahkota state by-election in Johor to win the hearts and minds of all voters in the constituency.

“The meeting fully supported the Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for the Mahkota by-election, representing the unity government, who will be named by the coalition’s central leadership soon,” he said in a statement yesterday.

He also shared that the meeting acknowledged the structure of the unity government’s machinery for the by-election with the appointment of Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi as the by-election director and Aminolhuda Hassan as the Pakatan Harapan (PH) machinery coordinator.

The meeting also is taking 3R (race, religion, royalty) issues seriously and stressed its loyalty and willingness to defend the sovereignty and status of the Malay Rulers as enshrined in the Federal Constitution, he added.
