Puad suggests BN call for Pahang, Perak polls next
Barisan Nasional still leads both state governments under a unity administration with Pakatan Harapan.
Former Batu Pahat MP Puad Zarkashi has suggested that the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition should dissolve the state assemblies in Pahang and Perak and hold new elections. Puad advocates for BN to dissolve the Pahang and Perak assemblies, allowing a BN-PN administration to succeed the current unity administrations. He believes that BN's cooperation with Perikatan Nasional (PN) was effective, as evidenced by the alliance's landslide victory in Melaka's recent state election.
The BN-PN partnership initially faced obstacles, with BN insisting on contesting at least 21 seats. However, PAS's decision to comply with BN's demands resulted in PAS winning two challenging seats. Consequently, according to Puad, it would be appropriate for BN to dissolve the Pahang and Perak state assemblies to facilitate a BN-PN government succeeding the existing unity administrations.
