State Seats (2008) - Kedah (updated)

PAS is not only confident of retaining its five state seats but to also bag more in this general election based on the support it has received.

PAS Kedah leader Amiruddin Hamzah, who will be defending his Anak Bukit state seat in the March 8 polls, claimed voters of all races are behind them.

"We are getting encouraging support from the Chinese and Indian communities - they are asking us to hold programmes. We will get their votes.

"Until now, the assessment reveals that our performance will be better than 2004. I don’t want to be overly optimistic but God willing, we will retain the seats and win more," he added.

Apart from Anak Bukit which Amiruddin won with a tissue-thin majority, the other four seats won by the Islamic-based opposition party in 2004 are Tokai, Belantek, Sungai Limau and Bukit Pinang.

As for the other seats which PAS is hoping to bag, Amiruddin said they are Ayer Hitam, Kota Seputeh, Alor Mengkudu, Pengkalan Kundur, Kubang Rotan, Kuala Ketil and Bayu.
