PERIKATAN Nasional (Perikatan) will be using a new logo for use in the 15th General Election (GE15).
Its chairperson Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said this after the suggestion was made at a Perikatan supreme council meeting about two weeks ago to modify its logo.
“The current logo is already good but we will improve on it and there will be symbols to be used.
“So, a suitable logo will be introduced and the Election Commission (EC) will be notified on this,” Muhyiddin said when met by reporters at the Perak PN Aidiladha Kenduri Rakyat (People’s Feast) in Kampung Manjoi in Ipoh yesterday.
Earlier, he was asked to comment on PAS’ indication that it will neither use the Perikatan logo nor its own “full moon” logo for its candidates in GE15.
PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang reportedly said that his party would be using a new, suitable symbol for its candidates in the coming general election.
Muhyiddin said PAS had informed Perikatan that it wanted a more suitable logo for the coalition and this was being worked out by its secretary-general, Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin.
On July 3, PAS deputy president Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man reportedly said that the decision on the use of the Perikatan logo in GE15 had not been finalised. – July 12, 2022.
