SEREMBAN: After its failure to win any parliamentary seat in Negeri Sembilan at last year’s 15th general election (GE15), questions abound as to whether Perikatan Nasional will fare better at the coming state election scheduled for Aug 12.
“PAS does not have strong grassroots support in Negeri Sembilan,” Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia’s Jamaie Hamil told FMT, also citing the results of the 2018 state election where the party failed to win any seats.
He said Bersatu did just as badly, despite contesting under the Pakatan Harapan banner and riding on anti-Barisan Nasional (BN) sentiments.
