PKR leaders are being told to leave safe urban constituencies and contest in Malay-majority, rural seats in the 15th general election.

Alor Setar MP Chan Ming Kai said as a multiracial party, PKR should not only contest in the racially mixed and urban seats that have already received a mandate from the people in the previous elections.

"PKR leaders, particularly those who are highly popular, should be brave enough to explore the rural constituencies that have yet to be won instead of remaining in safe seats in the cities that have plenty of non-Malay voters," he said without naming any PKR leader.
