Parti Cinta Malaysia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Parti Cinta Malaysia is a Malaysian political party formed in 2009.[1] Its members include former Gerakan vice-president and member of Parliament Huan Cheng Guan,[2] and former Sarawak State Assembly member Gabriel Adit Demong.[1] For the first time ever, the party contested the 2011 Sarawak state election using its own logo after approval was given by the Election Commission. However, party lost its only seat, Ngemah, by 995 votes to Barisan Nasional, and their candidates were defeated in other seats such as Simunjan, Balai Ringin, Machan and Bekenu. Despite the defeat, PCM will most likely contest in various seats in Penang and other states in Malaysia as well in the coming 13th General Elections.

During the 13th General Elections, PCM failed to win in any of the seats its candidates contested, with most losing their deposits, resulting in the party closing all its service centres in the state of Penang.
