  "account": "MELAKA: Barisan Nasional leader Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has warned against complacency following BN-PN's consecutive victories in Johor, Negri Sembilan, and Melaka. The coalition secured 24 out of 28 seats in Melaka, according to unofficial results, signaling a growing \"blue wave\" momentum. Zahid emphasized that the coalition's mandate carries a great responsibility to fulfill every manifesto pledge and deliver on the people's aspirations, regardless of religion, race, or background. He highlighted that BN and PN's victory in Melaka, with over two-thirds of the state assembly seats, demonstrated the people's confidence in their track record, stability, and development plans. The political understanding between the two coalitions has strengthened and gained wider acceptance among the people, Zahid added.",
