Hasni, who is also the BN candidate for Simpang Renggam parliamentary, said the people of Johor want a stable government and the progressive and advanced BN-led state government has already proven to be one, after winning the Johor state election last March.
"In the Johor election, BN took the lead winning 40 of the 56 state seats. This not only restored the state as a BN stronghold, but it will also be the key to BN’s victory in GE15," he told reporters after attending a feast at Kampung Parit Salman here today.
The former Johor Menteri Besar said that in the next one or two terms, the state would see a bright future because BN youths will continue to develop the state thus contributing further growth to the country.
Last Wednesday, at a meet-and-greet session with Ayer Hitam parliamentary constituents, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said he wanted Johor to return to being an UMNO and BN stronghold and contribute to the coalition’s victory in GE15.
Commenting on Johor DAP chairman Liew Chin Tong's statement that Pakatan Harapan (PH) needs a voter turnout of at least 70 per cent to win GE15, Hasni said this was immaterial as voters will stay loyal to the coalition.
A total of 2,616,576 ordinary voters including military, police personnel and their spouses are eligible to cast their ballot in Johor in this GE15. - BERNAMA
