REMBAU: Most of the candidates contesting the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) elections this time are new faces, following the wishes of party members who want reform and will not be bound by the wishes of any individual.

Negeri Sembilan PKR leadership council (MPN) chairman, Aminuddin Harun, who is also the Menteri Besar, said that it also provided an opportunity for the new leaders to shape the party's future direction better.

"I'm sure if this is the way, this is the best actually. We are not bound and cannot bind subordinate members to make the desired changes...otherwise, old people will always survive.

"We are aware that PKR members have now reached 1.1 million people, and most of them are young people. Hence, we feel they have the right to determine the future, they want reform, want a new 'spirit'," he said.

He said this to reporters after launching the Rembau district led billboard and rural stage bus services (RENTAS NS) for Rembau and Tampin districts.
