Selangor Pakatan yet to resolve seat allocation

(The Sun Daily) – The Selangor Pakatan Harapan (PH) has yet to resolve its seat negotiation in the state, with progress currently stalled at 62%, with 21 out of 56 state seats still up for grabs.

An hour-long negotiation at the PKR state election office in Vista Alam, among the four PH parties, namely PKR, DAP, Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM) and Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah) failed to yield any consensus

While acknowledging the discussion went well, party representatives acknowledged there were overlapping issues that needed to be addressed.

Thirty-one out of the 35 agreed seats are incumbent seats, currently being held by DAP (15), PKR (14) and Amanah (2).

DAP deputy chairman Gobind Singh Deo (pix) confirmed that not all of the seat negotiations could be resolved at the meeting.

“We have managed to resolve 35 seats, which is 60% to 62% of the seats in total,” he said.

“What we are going to do next is bilateral talks and trilateral talks between parties individually before we come back to our next meeting to make headway,” he told reporters when met after the meeting.
