Jadikan krisis N Sembilan pengajaran, beri PH kembali tadbir Melaka, kata Mat Sabu

Presiden Amanah Mohamad Sabu urged Melaka voters to return governance to Pakatan Harapan (PH) and believes a coalition could form a state government if they secure more than 15 seats in the Dewan Undangan Negeri (DUN). Speaking at his Skandal Tabung Haji event in Melaka, Sabu warned that the power struggle within the region is causing political instability, ultimately harming the people.

He urged the community to learn from the crisis in Negeri Sembilan and return power to PH in Melaka. Mohamad, also known as Mat Sabu, made this call in the wake of the April political turmoil that followed a dispute involving Adat institution and the state constitutional framework. This turmoil culminated in all 14 Umno MPs pulling support from Aminuddin Harun as Menteri Besar on April 27, citing a loss of trust in his ability to handle the crisis.

The dispute involved four laws that declared Tuanku Muhriz's position, which Aminuddin had previously endorsed. The sacking of 14 MPs left the PH-led state government with only 17 seats out of 36 in the DUN, while BN and PN each had 14 and five seats respectively. The sacking triggered the dissolution of the state legislature leading to the PRN on August 1.

Sabu cautioned that the events following the 14th General Election, including the Sheraton Move, should not repeat. He said that a government formed through elections should be given a chance to serve a term rather than being toppled by power struggles before the people vote again. "Why fall? Sheraton Move. Why Sheraton Move? It's shameful to take power in the middle of the road.

We can't wait for an election after five years," he stated. Regarding the upcoming Melaka PRN, Mohamad said he believes PH could form a state government if they secure more than 15 seats in the DUN, with BN getting fewer than the required number. "Melaka is where we need to put Malaysia's politics on a solid foundation again," he added.

The 16th Melaka PRN is scheduled for November 14, following the state legislature dissolution on September 23. With 28 seats, the Melaka DUN will be the stage for this political battle.
