PETALING JAYA:
Parti Bersama Malaysia will contest the state election in Johor, Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad have announced.

In a statement, the former PKR duo said further discussions would be held today with Bersama’s representatives in Johor to identify the seats the party would contest.

“The 2026 Johor state election gives Bersama the opportunity to introduce itself to Johor voters despite it being less than a month after Bersama was relaunched on May 17.

“This will also allow Bersama to establish its election machinery in a short span of time and test its strength in preparing for other future elections,” they said in a statement.

The former ministers also announced that Bersama would embark on a nationwide tour to draw attention to its key agenda, with its first stop in Melaka on June 7.

It will also visit Negeri Sembilan, Perak, Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Selangor, Penang, Kedah, Perlis, and Kuala Lumpur.

Rafizi and Nik Nazmi took over Bersama after resigning as the MPs for Pandan and Setiawangsa, respectively, and quitting PKR.

The Johor assembly was dissolved on Monday, paving the way for the 16th state election to be held within 60 days.
