Syed Saddiq: State polls start of Muda’s ‘new politics’ journey

INTERVIEW | Muda set the political arena abuzz when it announced its decision to “break up” with Pakatan Harapan and go solo into the looming state elections.

The decision courted brickbats, with some critics calling it “overhasty”, while several political observers dubbed the move – which would pit the youth party against three major coalitions – as a “suicide mission”.

However, Muda president Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman told Malaysiakini that his fledgling party was entering the battle ring with a realistic mindset and will not be aiming for the sky, yet.
