Many candidates at Malaysia’s 15th general election are choosing to focus on policy issues, and staying away from mudslinging and rhetoric-style campaigning.
Some analysts said campaigns with strong visions on issues like the economy and job opportunities could garner greater support this time around. Other United Malays National Organisation candidates are touting their wealth of experience as a reason for people to vote for them. It has also taken a Malay song by the late Malaysian actor and singer P Ramlee, and tweaked the lyrics to take aim at previous administrations. The chorus includes a line “siapa sokong penyamun” .
They cannot really mudsling. If they point out court cases and clusters, all sides kind of have. No Najib cos that's the deal. The only one keeping w their narrative is PAS.
