Md Ysahrudin Kusni is contesting the Bukit Naning state seat as a Pakatan Harapan candidate in the 16th Johor State Election (PRN Johor Ke-16), with polling set for July 11, 2026.

Md Ysahrudin Kusni stands as the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) candidate within the Pakatan Harapan coalition, which is chaired by Prime Minister Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim. The coalition brings together PKR, DAP and Amanah in a unified slate fielded across all 56 Johor state constituencies.

Bukit Naning is one of the 56 state constituencies on the ballot this election. The outcome here will contribute to the overall balance of power in the Johor State Legislative Assembly.

As a PKR candidate, Md Ysahrudin Kusni runs on Pakatan Harapan's reform-driven, Malaysia Madani platform of good governance, economic opportunity and clean administration. PKR is contesting 20 of the coalition's 56 Johor seats.

Pakatan Harapan's selection process for the Johor election was rigorous, with the coalition evaluating more than 1,000 potential candidates before finalising its 56 names. The slate blends established leaders, professionals and fresh faces, reflecting the coalition's bid to present a credible, governing-ready team to Johor voters.

With Nomination Day on June 27 and polling on July 11, 2026, the campaign in Bukit Naning is now underway. The result will be one piece of a high-stakes contest watched closely across Malaysia.
