DAP using PKR logo fool Malay voters, says Khairy

BUTTERWORTH: The decision by DAP to use coalition partner PKR logo during the 14th General election (GE14) is a ploy to lure Malay voters in accepting the party, Barisan Nasional (BN) Youth chief Khairy Jamaludin said today.
He said the decision was made after DAP realised that using PKR logo would make the party easier to be accepted during the national polls.
"It is a tactic to confuse the Malay voters. They know it is easier than using PKR logo than using their own rocket logo," he told reporters after launching the state BN Briged Gempur at Kubang Menerong today.
He said DAP knows that the rocket logo is unfavourable to Malay voters.
Khairy said the fact DAP willing to ditch their iconic logo only shows that the party is willing to to do anything for power.
On Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Tun Mahathir Mohamad announcing the use of the PKR logo, Khairy said it shows there is clash of principles among the opposition coalition.
"We cannot support a pact which was founded only for power. We know that that PKR logo was created because of him (Tun Mahathir) but now he has to swallow back what he had spit before," he said.
