Malaysia's political parties grapple with shifting alliances ahead of key state elections

Malaysia's political landscape is becoming increasingly fragmented, ahead of key state elections in Johor and Negeri Sembilan. Both the ruling unity government and the opposition Perikatan Nasional coalition are grappling with internal divisions and shifting alliances. As parties reposition themselves, the upcoming polls could offer an early indication of where voter sentiment is heading. The Election Commission will meet on Friday to decide the nomination and polling dates for the Johor and Negeri Sembilan state elections. Melissa Goh reports from Kuala Lumpur.
