Bersama Reformasi to contest in Johor elections

KUALA LUMPUR, June 3, 2026: Bersama reformists Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad have confirmed that their party will field candidates in the coming Johor elections.

This is good news for multi-racial Malaysians as Bersama would serve as a political alternative to the expired and empty-promising Taliban-like PAS, Pakatan Harapan (PH) , Perikatan Nasional (PN-Bersatu) and the Umno-led Barisan Nasional (BN).

This means there will be five-corner free-for-all electoral battles (BN, PAS, PN, PH and Bersama) in Johor.

Bersama will also hold a nationwide tour to draw attention to its key agenda, with its first stop in Melaka on June 7.

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

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.

Also, are these three able to win enough seats in the 222-seat Parliament to form the next federal government with Sarawak and Sabah (Warisan) after the next general election (GE)?
