SELANGOR Barisan Nasional (BN) will field 21 new faces in 21 parliamentary seats in the upcoming 15th General Election (GE15).

Its chairman Noh Omar said this meant that of the 22 parliamentary seats in Selangor, BN would be fielding an old face for one seat.

“In Selangor, 21 new candidates will be contesting while I am the only old face,” he told the media after officiating at the Keluarga Malaysia Undergraduates Cheap Sales programme, in Bangi, today.

However, Noh who is also Selangor Umno Liaison Committee chairman, declined to say more on the list of candidates.

“I don’t want to divulge the list of candidates, let’s just wait for the announcement from the top 5,” he said.

“The top 5 refer to Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, deputy president Mohamad Hasan and the three vice-presidents, Ismail Sabri Yaakob, Mohamed Khaled Nordin and Mahdzir Khalid.

Noh said the list of candidates has been sent to BN’s top leadership. – Bernama, October 19, 2022.
