ONLY two seats have not been finalised in the negotiations between Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Barisan Nasional (BN) for the Selangor elections. 

Both of these will be referred to the central party leadership for the next course of action, Selangor Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari said.

“So far, 95% of seat allocation talks are complete. PH-BN talks are done and only two seats have not been settled, which will be decided by the central leadership,” he told reporters after officiating the 2023 Selangor Mega Job Carnival in Shah Alam, today.

There are 56 seats to be contested in Selangor. Elections will also be held in Penang, Negri Sembilan, Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu.

In another development, Amirudin said the state executive council meetings held since last Friday was to ensure several matters including policy and administrative decisions could be resolved before the dissolution of the state assembly. 

“We have completed the majority of outstanding issues and now only 67 working papers remain. When we took over, I remember there were over 200 pending cases that were not finalised. 

He said following the 14th general election in 2018, the Selangor government only recorded an income of RM1.8 billion whereas the original target was up to RM2.4 billion. – Bernama, June 18, 2023.
