PAS election director Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor said the number of seats was reasonable, but it had not been finalised and depended on the outcome of negotiations with its Perikatan Nasional partners.

“This matter will be finalised very soon,” he told a press conference here today.

Sanusi, who is Kedah menteri besar, said PAS hoped to be given a sufficient number of seats for the state election and felt that five seats was a reasonable number.

Nomination for the Melaka election is on Nov 8 and polling, on Nov 20.
