MP SPEAKS | PKR or Harapan logo, don’t play checkers in a chess game
MP SPEAKS | PKR has been criticised for breaking rank in using its own logo rather than the Pakatan Harapan logo in the forthcoming Johor state election.
Speaking as an ordinary PKR member, I am of the opinion that it is unfair to label the party’s use of its own logo as breaking away from Harapan or a sign of disunity.
There are valid reasons for PKR to choose its own logo over the Harapan logo.
Giving its best shot
Firstly, uniformity of appearance cannot be more important than allowing a party to give its best shot at winning the election.
In checkers, the pieces move in a uniform pace and direction. Winning is by coordinating and supporting the uniformed movement.
In chess, the pieces do not move in a uniform manner or direction. Winning is by giving the pieces their full range of the board in accordance with their specific and unique movements.
