KUALA LUMPUR: Despite calls by some for the 15th General Election to be held as soon as possible this year, DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke believes it will only happen next year, possibly even after Hari Raya Aidilfitri.

Loke explained this was because the window for the government to dissolve Parliament is quite narrow, despite mounting speculation that GE15 will be called by September this year.
