KOTA BARU – The distribution of seats between Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Barisan Nasional (BN) for the impending elections in six states has reached 80%, said Umno secretary-general Datuk Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki.
He said the remaining 20% still needed details before they can be finalised.
“We already have an understanding for 80%, there is only 20% that need details, and we see no major problems in the negotiations, the atmosphere is quite positive.
“That’s all I can say for now, we’ll wait for the rest when we finalise them,” he told reporters after the Makan Colek with Kelantan Media event here last night.
Meanwhile, he said Umno sees the state elections in Selangor, Negri Sembilan, Kedah, Penang, Terengganu and Kelantan this year as the first litmus test of cooperation and understanding for BN and PH at the federal level through the unity government.
He said being realistic is important, and the state elections will serve as the first stage to test and see which areas can be improved.
“The most important thing is that the existing government needs to be stable in terms of economy and social development. Due to political bickering for more than four years, Malaysia is lagging behind compared to neighbouring countries,” he said. – Bernama, April 15, 2023
