KLANG: The upcoming state election in Selangor is expected to be an acrimonious and vengeance-charged event, as political veterans say events and incidents that have transpired over the last few months will shape the mood and the setting of the polls.

Other pertinent questions looming ahead are whether Pakatan Harapan will do as well as it did in the 2018 polls or if Perikatan Nasional will advance ahead through the the green wave.

On PAS grabbing three of PKR’s seats in the last general election, Chua said the credit should go to Perikatan instead of just to PAS. Former Kapar Umno chief Datuk Faisal Abdullah said Selangor will be the focus in the upcoming state election given that it is a developed and rich state which both political coalitions want control of.

He added it would also not be easy for the current Selangor administration to change hands as the state has almost 50 % non-Malay voters. The six-term Tanjong Karang MP was sacked from Umno last year over alleged close ties with the Opposition during the general election.
