Malaysian PM Anwar says he may hold snap polls if cracks continue in unity government

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has indicated the possibility of a snap election. This comes a day after the Johor Chief Minister announced that Barisan Nasional (BN) will contest all seats in the upcoming state election. The southern state is not due for polls until June next year, but speculation of an early elections in Malaysia has been heating up. Pakatan Harapan (PH) - the coalition led by Mr Anwar, held its national convention in Johor Bahru today. PH and BN formed a unity government at the federal level following the 2022 GE. They later extended that cooperation across six state elections held in 2023. Afifah Ariffin reports. Meanwhile two former ministers have announced that they are leaving Mr Anwar’s People's Justice Party (PKR). Mr Rafizi Ramli and Mr Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad – who served in Mr Anwar's cabinet, said they will join Parti Bersama Malaysia or Malaysian United Party. They will also vacate their parliamentary seats.
