  "account": "Presiden Parti Bangsa Malaysia (PBM) Larry Sng has claimed that the Barisan Nasional (BN)-Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition can secure an easy majority in the 16th General Election (PRU16), provided their continued collaboration. Sng highlighted that if the situation persists, a coalition government in the Borneo states, comprising the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) and Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS), would no longer be the 'kingmaker', especially if the Parliament hinged on them.\n\nThe former PKR Sarawak chief added that based on the current vote tally, a BN-PN coalition would sweep all 98 seats won in the 2022 PRU, forming a 112-member government. Only 14 more parliamentary seats would be required. \"Without considering the political factions in Malaysia Borneo from Sabah and Sarawak, I believe based on the current vote tally, it is highly likely that BN-PN will achieve a comfortable majority after PRU16,\" Sng stated in a Facebook post.\n\nThe Barisan Nasional, Perikatan Nasional, and Pakatan Harapan (PH) were competing for 171 parliamentary seats in the last election, with a significant portion situated on the mainland, including 86 seats with a 65% Malay voter composition. The vote resulted in a hung Parliament, with PH winning 82 out of 222 seats, followed by PN (74), BN (30), GPS (23), and GRS (six). Subsequently, BN, GPS, and GRS supported PH Chairman Anwar Ibrahim to form the Madani-led government as the Prime Minister. Earlier predictions from political analysts suggested that PRU16 would likely witness a near tie, with no single party securing enough seats to form a government independently.",
