Standing under the Pakatan Harapan banner, Guna Balakrishnan will fight for the Layang-Layang constituency in the upcoming Johor state election on July 11, 2026.
Guna Balakrishnan stands as the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) candidate within the Pakatan Harapan coalition, which is chaired by Prime Minister Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim. The coalition brings together PKR, DAP and Amanah in a unified slate fielded across all 56 Johor state constituencies.
The Layang-Layang constituency forms part of the broader battleground that will decide control of the Johor State Legislative Assembly. Pakatan Harapan is contesting all 56 state seats in a direct challenge across both urban and rural Johor.
As a PKR candidate, Guna Balakrishnan runs on Pakatan Harapan's reform-driven, Malaysia Madani platform of good governance, economic opportunity and clean administration. PKR is contesting 20 of the coalition's 56 Johor seats.
Pakatan Harapan's selection process for the Johor election was rigorous, with the coalition evaluating more than 1,000 potential candidates before finalising its 56 names. The slate blends established leaders, professionals and fresh faces, reflecting the coalition's bid to present a credible, governing-ready team to Johor voters.
Nomination Day falls on June 27, 2026, with early voting on July 7 and polling day on July 11. Voters in Layang-Layang will have their say as Pakatan Harapan seeks to extend its mandate across Johor.
