Will Warisan Sabah make its peninsula debut in Johor?

Question

Accepted Answer

Warisan Sabah is considering Johor for its peninsular Malaysia electoral debut.

Parti Warisan Sabah is reportedly evaluating Johor as a potential location for its first electoral foray into peninsular Malaysia. A decision regarding this potential debut is expected to be made following the conclusion of party president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal's tour of Johor on February 16. This tour includes various programs and walkabouts designed to assess local issues and gauge public sentiment, which will inform the party's decision.
Potential Contest in Limited Seats

Warisan is contemplating contesting in a limited number of seats, possibly three or fewer, to mitigate potential conflicts with other opposition parties. Despite this consideration, the party acknowledges that clashes with other opposition groups are likely if they choose to contest in Johor.
Opposition Seat Allocation in Johor

The Pakatan Harapan coalition has already allocated all 56 state seats in Johor among its component parties: DAP, Amanah, and PKR. Any potential cooperation with other opposition parties is being managed at the individual component party level.
Discussions with Muda

The Malaysian United Democratic Party (Muda) has reportedly been engaged in discussions with Warisan concerning the expansion of Warisan's presence in the peninsula. Warisan president Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal has also extended an offer for Muda to contest under Warisan's logo in future general elections. Muda has already announced its candidate for the Puteri Wangsa state assembly seat in the Johor state election.
