The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) is asking for 14 state and six Parliamentary seats in upcoming 13th eeneral elections (GE), said its president M Kayveas.

He said a letter on this was handed to Barisan Nasional (BN) secretary-general Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor last week.

“We understand that Tengku Adnan has informed the leaders of all BN component parties on the matter,” he told a press conference after the party’s supreme council meeting in Kuala Lumpur today.

Also present was PPP vice-president Maglin Dennis D’Cruz.

Kayveas added that the party hoped the BN would consider their request as it was confident of nominating candidates who could win.
