PAS will decide on its own when to dissolve the state legislative assemblies of Terengganu, Kelantan and Kedah to make way for state polls to be held, its president Abdul Hadi Awang said.

He said the menteris besar of Terengganu (Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar), Kelantan (Ahmad Yakob) and Kedah (Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor) will be holding a meeting to decide the matter.

Hadi said it is up to the states under Pakatan Harapan (PH) rule – Negeri Sembilan, Selangor and Penang – to follow PAS’ choice of date.

“We will decide the date on our own and the matter will be discussed in the next meeting,” he told reporters after Perikatan Nasional’s (PN) Semarak Gelombang Rakyat programme at Kampung Tanah Datar in Kuala Pilah today.

Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar Aminuddin Harun reportedly said he, Selangor Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari and Penang Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow, are willing to discuss the matter with the three PAS menteris besar.

Hadi said PAS is studying several factors before determining an appropriate date for dissolution.

He said PN’s chances of victory in Negri Sembilan are bright based on the support it received in the general election, despite the coalition failing to win any parliamentary seats in the state. – Bernama, January 21, 2023.
