Challenge No.1: Ability To Showcase a Unified Front: One of the biggest challenges the PH-BN coalition will face is managing internal differences. PH is a coalition of progressive parties (PKR, DAP, Amanah), while BN, particularly UMNO, represents a more traditional and conservative segment. Publicly demonstrating unity, common purpose, and aligned policies is essential to avoid voter confusion and dissatisfaction

East Malaysia Focus (Sabah and Sarawak): PH-BN should focus on delivering autonomy, infrastructure development, and economic growth to Sabah and Sarawak. By committing to increased federal-state cooperation and empowering local governance, they can maintain or expand their hold in East Malaysia. Issues like resource-sharing and regional development should be key points in their platform.

Regular Joint Campaigns: Joint rallies and community outreach between PH and BN leaders could help overcome skepticism among voters and present a united front, particularly in constituencies where cooperation is necessary to avoid splitting the vote.

Engage Younger Voters: GE15 saw an influx of younger voters (thanks to automatic voter registration and lowering the voting age to 18), and this demographic will be even more important in GE16. PH-BN should focus on youth-centric issues like employment, affordable housing, education reform, and environmental policies.

Utilize Social Media and Digital Campaigning: PN’s success in reaching young voters via platforms like TikTok was notable. PH-BN must counter this with a strong digital campaign that speaks to youth concerns. They should use social media influencers, create engaging digital content, and ensure their message is both modern and relatable to younger audiences.

Promote Achievements in Government: As the current government, PH-BN has the advantage of incumbency. They should highlight their achievements, particularly in managing the economy, maintaining social stability, and implementing reforms. This includes improvements in education, healthcare, and infrastructure projects.

Showcase State-Level Successes: PH-run states like Selangor and Penang are often touted as models of good governance. PH-BN should emphasize the successes in these states, such as economic growth, efficient service delivery, and social welfare programs, as a preview of what they can achieve nationally.

Reinforce National Unity: PH-BN should frame themselves as the coalition that represents unity across all races, religions, and regions. Promoting the idea of Malaysia as a diverse, multicultural society working together for prosperity will resonate with urban voters and the middle class, but they must also ensure that this message does not alienate more conservative Malay voters.

To capitalize on the motto "Perpaduan Demi Keharmonian, Keamanan, dan Kesejahteraan* (Unity for Harmony, Peace, and Prosperity) in their GE16 campaign, PH-BN can craft a strategy that emphasizes the strength and benefits of political unity and multicultural cooperation for national development.

Promote Collaborative Problem-Solving as an Alternative to Political Division: Contrast PH-BN’s unity with PN’s often confrontational approach. Argue that political division stalls progress and distracts from solving the nation’s most pressing challenges. Highlight examples where PN’s agenda of opposition politics may have hindered problem-solving or caused unnecessary delays in policymaking.
