KUALA TERENGGANU: Seven Perikatan Nasional (PN) candidates will contest under the coalition's logo in the Melaka election on Nov 14.
PN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar said Bersatu should clarify its position on using the PN logo, adding that questions on the matter should be directed to the party.
"The Election Commission has been informed that authorisation to use the logo must be signed by the PN chairman.
"How does Bersatu intend to contest under the PN logo? Questions about its use should be directed to the party," he said after opening a biodiversity seminar at Wisma Darul Iman here today.
Earlier, Samsuri, who is Terengganu Menteri Besar, accompanied the Regent of Terengganu, Tengku Muhammad Ismail Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin, to the seminar.
He said the seven candidates from PN component parties would use the coalition's logo in the Melaka polls, and that it would continue to be used in future elections.
Samsuri said the principles agreed by Barisan Nasional (BN) and PN on seat allocations should continue to guide negotiations for the Melaka polls and the next general election.
On PN's candidates, he said component parties intending to contest had submitted their nominees, with the official line-up expected to be announced tomorrow.
