PKR polls: Amirudin calls for ‘mature politics' among candidates, says members and voters are watching
SHAH ALAM, May 13 — All candidates contesting in the 2025 PKR Election have been urged to uphold decorum and order, and to adhere to the guidelines set by the Central Election Committee (JPP) throughout their campaign. PKR vice-president Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari in a post on platform X said the reminder also applied to himself as he is defending his position. He urged candidates to take advantage of the upcoming party elections as a platform to present ideas and visions in a mature manner. 'This election is an opportunity for us to reflect on our past term's performance, to be evaluated by party members, and to be observed by the public. 'As a core party in the Unity Government, the people will be watching our every action and behaviour. Let us all demonstrate peaceful and mature politics for everyone's benefit,' he said. The nomination process, which ended last Friday, saw Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim retaining his presidency unchallenged, while the deputy president post will see a contest between Nurul Izzah Anwar and incumbent Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli, who is also the Minister of Economy. In the race for the vice-president post, aside from Amirudin, 11 others have submitted their nominations, including three incumbents; Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad (Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability), Chang Lih Kang (Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation), and Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun (Menteri Besar of Negeri Sembilan). The Finance Minister's political secretary Muhammad Kamil Abdul Munim was uncontested for the position of PKR Youth (AMK) chief, while incumbent Fadhlina Sidek (Education Minister) and Rodziah Ismail (the Ampang member of parliament) will have a rematch for the position of PKR Women's chief. The PKR National Congress, including the AMK and Women's Congress, is scheduled to be held from May 21 to 24 in Johor Bahru, with May 23 set as polling day. — Bernama

Nik Nazmi confirms protest over Setiawangsa loss, PKR leadership to announce verdict soon
HULU SELANGOR, April 26 — PKR vice-president Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad confirmed he had sent a protest letter to the party's Central Election Committee (JPP) regarding several issues related to the Setiawangsa division head election results. 'I have sent a protest letter (to the JPP) and we will wait for the response. There is also a Central Leadership Council (CEC) meeting today, so we will just wait for the decision they will announce,' he said. Nik Nazmi, who is also the Minister of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change, said this when met by reporters after officiating the World Tapir Day 2025 celebration at the Wildlife Conservation Centre in Sungai Dusun, Kuala Kubu Baharu, here today. In the April 19 election, the Setiawangsa MP failed to defend the Setiawangsa division head position after losing to famous actor and film director Datuk Afdlin Shauki, by securing 563 votes while Afdlin obtained 631 votes. Yesterday, JPP chairman Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa said the status of the protests involving the election of several PKR divisions in the 2025 PKR Election would be announced next week. — Bernama
