Saifuddin: More mixed seats could motivate politicians to campaign across ethnic lines
- 5 years ago
One way to discourage politicians from campaigning along extreme racial and religious lines would be a greater number of mixed constituencies, Foreign Minister Saifuddin Abdullah believes.
In a group interview at Wisma Putra on National Day he said out of 222 seats, there are only about 83 seats which are really mixed seats, but if you look at the geography of the constituencies, we should have had about 140 mixed seats.
