It’s the clenched fist for PSM


KUALA LUMPUR: Parti Socialis Malaysia will be using its “clenched fist” symbol for all elections now that it has been officially approved by the Election Commission.

Party chairman Dr Mohd Nasir Hashim said in previous general elections, it had used the logos of Opposition parties DAP in 1999 and PKR in 2004 and 2008.

He said the party would hold its three-day annual general meeting from May 29 to May 31.

Parti Socialis Malaysia, which claims 10,000 members, was founded to look into the welfare of workers, he said.

It was officially registered under the Society Act on Aug 19 2008 and on Sept 18 that same year, submitted an application to have its logo approved. The letter of approval was received on April 20 this year.

On the Penanti by-election scheduled for May 31, Dr Mohd Nasir said the party would be supporting PKR in its campaign.
