PN, Pas expected to contest seven to 10 Melaka seats
KOTA BARU: Perikatan Nasional and Pas are expected to contest between seven to 10 seats in the upcoming Melaka state election.
Perikatan Nasional (PN) and Barisan Nasional (BN) are set to contest between seven to 10 seats in the upcoming Melaka state election, according to PN deputy chairman Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man. Discussions regarding seat distribution have taken place between PN and BN, with a basic framework already drafted for endorsement by both parties.
PN has also engaged in seat negotiations with Umno, and a list of potential candidates compiled by Pas' Melaka commissioner is to be reviewed at a Syura Council meeting on Friday. The final list of candidates is expected to be determined on October 2 in Perlis, after which two names could be shortlisted for each state constituency.
Under the current agreement, seats previously won by each party remain with that party, even if the candidate has since joined a different party.
