KOTA BARU: Although Kelantan voters gave Pakatan Harapan a knockout blow in the 14th General Election, the coalition which captured Putrajaya is apparently determined not to sideline the state that as been under PAS rule for almost three decades.

Pakatan lost deposits in two-thirds of the 45 state seats and nine out of the 14 parliamentary seats it contested in GE14, but is not using its humiliating defeat as an excuse to leave the state high and dry.
