In a few weeks, six states will go to the polls to choose their state governments; three currently controlled by PH ? Penang, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan, and three by PAS ? Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu. The dynamics of the first and second set of states are similar, owing to the demographic, voting patterns and political norms of each other.
If the voting pattern of the last General Elections remain, Selangor and Penang would likely see reduced margins or seats for PH, especially the northern part of Selangor and mainland Penang. Their partnership with BN however, is likely to further secure the Perpaduan position in Negeri Sembilan, and in currently held strongholds, in central and south of Selangor, as well as Penang island.
In this sense, if pure political support is the only barometer, Perpaduan can be expected to lose a little ground to Perikatan, but perhaps more accurately read as a continuance of the last election’s protest vote as opposed to permanently gained ground in Penang and Selangor.Whichever way the politics plays out, our lives will nonetheless be impacted. With a crushing 1.
While this has largely been contained now by new legislations, a noticeable trend is the increasing tendency by political parties to undermine the legitimacy of their opponents who are in power, making it difficult to run the administration. In response to this, political parties tend to devise too many “quick wins” to garner immediate support, mainly for its political survival.
