Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim ended a press conference at 6pm KL time outside Malaysia’s National Palace stating that there has not been a decision regarding the 10th Prime Minister nor the formation of the government. He also clarified that he is not interim Prime Minister.
The King has expressed a desire to have an inclusive government that works to resolve people’s problems and improve the economy. He will make his announcement in due time regarding the government.
Shortly prior, he and Perikatan Nasional leader Muhyiddin Yassin had an audience with the King regarding the results of the general election and how to move forward given the status of hung parliament as no party nor coalition managed to win the majority of seats in the Federal Parliament.
The minor coalition, Barisan Nasional, had declared that they will not form an alliance with either of the major coalitions and will remain in opposition.
All Malaysian election results I've seen are categorized by coalition, not party. I find this frustrating.
Mostly, I'd like to differentiate -- at a glance -- between which PN seats went for PAS & which for PPBM.
Lumping together makes sense politically (esp. with new anti-hopping law), but it obscures the ideological and geographical reach of each component party.
Wonder if theres any Malaysians on here
