ALOR SETAR:
Perikatan Nasional (PN) is expected to complete seat distribution for the upcoming elections in six states on Sunday, according to its election director, Sanusi Nor.

He said only a few seats in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan are undecided.

“As for Penang, Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu, everything has been finalised.

“Previously, we gave Selangor and Negeri Sembilan one week (to finalise the seat distribution). So, on Sunday, we will meet again with the PN leadership. Hopefully, it will be finalised then,” he said last night.

Sanusi, who is also Kedah menteri besar, said the seats that are still pending are not “hot seats”, but no agreement has been reached on them yet.

Previously, PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man was reported to have said that negotiations on seat distribution among the three PN component parties – PAS, Bersatu and Gerakan – was 80% complete.

He also said the first round of negotiations had gone smoothly and the distribution of seats had been conducted by consensus involving all three parties.
