00:00A PKR MP has urged Pakatan Harapan to shore up support from among its core voter base
00:07to strengthen its hand in negotiations over cooperation in the next general election.
00:13The Brau MP Jimmy Boas said PH should make securing the urban electorate and M40 voters
00:18its top priority, warning that without a strong voter core, the coalition would struggle to win
00:23over fence-sitters and those outside its traditional support base.
00:27We need to make ourselves stronger. Meaning what? What is PH about? Why do people vote for us?
00:35We should never forget that. We are a progressive reformist platform. That is what we are about.
00:41So we have to show to the people we actually delivered or in the midst of delivering reform.
00:46He said PH must ensure it has sufficient bargaining power before engaging with other coalitions and parties on cooperation.
01:01The Johor PKR vice chief also emphasised that party messages should be delivered using clear and simple language
01:08or translated in a way that the Rakyat can relate to.
01:12Like this Chinese New Year, we say Ringgit has strengthened.
01:15They say, what does that mean to us? What does it mean to Rakyat?
01:18I say, this year do you notice when you buy your Mandarin Orange?
01:21Is it cheap? Is it cheaper than last year?
01:25They say yes. I say, do you know why? Because Ringgit has strengthened.
01:28So this type of messaging in a more simple to understand language has to be used by the government.
