Will PSM’s Electoral Gambit Pay Off?

Will PSM’s Electoral Gambit Pay Off?

Over the weekend, Parti Sosialis Malaysia announced that it will be fielding 17 candidates in the upcoming General Elections - 5 Federal Parliamentary seats and 12 state seats. This comes a month after PAS announced that is would contest 130 Parliamentary seats.  Unlike the previous General Election when most voters were faced with a simple choice between two coalitions - Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Rakyat. This time the field is a little more crowded. Today we ask, if multi-cornered fights are a winning strategy for smaller parties like PSM and how they intend to appeal to voters to go beyond the BN vs PH framework.
