Liu foresees BN-PN pact falling apart, GE16 ‘free for all’
The former DAP leader says with Umno and PAS vying for the same voter base, the split will happen as both feel strong enough to compete for more seats.
Former DAP leader Ronnie Liu has forecasted that the BN-PN alliance will break apart before the next general election (GE16). He described their recent cooperation in Negeri Sembilan polls as a "temporary marriage of convenience" and warned that cracks would soon appear between the two coalitions. Liu believes that both BN and PN will compete fiercely for more seats, given the common voter base of their key components, Umno and PAS.
"They'll divorce and then go their separate ways," he predicted, adding that GE16 will be a "free for all" between political parties. The last general election left BN with 30 seats, PN with 74, and PH with 82. Meanwhile, Larry Sng, PBM president, expressed confidence that his party could outperform other smaller parties like Muda and Bersama in future elections.
Sng also mentioned that PBM's support base in Borneo remains strong under his leadership, and he is optimistic about the party's performance in upcoming elections.
