KANGAR: Perlis Perikatan Nasional (PN) today announced two more candidates contesting for the State Assembly seats in the 15th general election, to fill up candidacy for all state seats after revealing the names of 13 candidates last night.

Perlis PN chairman Mohd Shukri Ramli said the two candidates are Perlis PN Wanita committee member Datin Marzita Mansor (Sena) from Bersatu and Perlis Pas Youth chief Asrul Aimran Abd Jalil (Kayang).

He hoped that speculations over the names of the two candidates who were not announced last night would stop.

"Hopefully we can continue to move to ensure that PN captures the state of Perlis in GE15," he told reporters here.

Last night, Mohd Shukri announced the list of 13 PN candidates for the Perlis state assembly where eight will be contested by Pas candidates and five from Bersatu.

Perlis has 15 state assembly seats.
