PKR Melaka's communications chief Eddiarman Mohd Yunos said the poster in question was produced by a private individual who does not speak on behalf of the party. The statement came as the image gained traction on social media, prompting the party to distance itself from the content. Eddiarman emphasised that the poster had no connection to any official PKR initiative or campaign. The move reflects growing concerns among political parties in Malaysia about unauthorised materials circulating under their names on digital platforms. PKR did not provide further details about the specific poster or the circumstances surrounding its creation. The party's clarification underscores the challenges parties face in controlling their public messaging as social media becomes an increasingly unregulated space for political communication.
