Put it in writing, PH leader says on Melaka polls pact
Wanita chief Aiman Athirah Sabu says a formal agreement is necessary to put any cooperation between Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional on a firm footing.
Pakatan Harapan leader Aiman Athirah Sabu has emphasized the need for a formal agreement between her coalition and Barisan Nasional for the upcoming Melaka state election, following a lack of such an agreement in the past. The current PH chief made this statement, as reported by Bernama, after PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang mentioned ongoing talks between Perikatan Nasional and BN, though no agreement had been finalized yet.
PH and BN have previously collaborated in various state elections and by-elections, but their alliance in the recent Negeri Sembilan polls was contingent upon not contesting each other's seats. BN chairman Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had earlier indicated that Umno-led BN would continue its partnership with PN post their Negeri Sembilan victory, but later BN expressed openness to discussions with any coalition.
The Melaka government's term ends on December 31 unless the state assembly is dissolved earlier, meaning elections must be held within 60 days of such dissolution.
