KUALA LUMPUR – Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Khaled Nordin has denied that the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition has been annihilated in the 15th general election.

The Vibes’ Bahasa Malaysia sister portal, Getaran, reported Khaled as saying that he has not received any news that voters have outright rejected BN during the national contest.

“I haven’t received any decision,” he said curtly to the media at Umno headquarters in Menara Tun Hussein Onn in the World Trade Centre today.

As of 11.30pm, PH is leading with 22 parliamentary seats.

PN has taken 17 seats and GPS 15, while Warisan and PBM have one seat each. – The Vibes, November 19, 2022
