KUANTAN: With less than a week to go, Pakatan Harapan's Teruntum candidate Sim Chon Siang is busy with teaching constituents how to recognise the party symbol.

Many, especially older voters, were confused and kept looking for the PKR logo which was used by the coalition during the 14th General Election in 2018, he said.

"It's not so easy to get them familiarised with the new symbol so, to make it easier, we tell them to look for a 'pyramid'. That seems to have worked," said Sim."Younger voters are also unaware. When we teach them, they say our symbol looks like the Telegram logo.
