PUTRAJAYA: Only four states will have anti-hopping laws in place to prevent state-elected representatives from switching parties if the general election is held before the year’s end, says Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar.

The four are Sarawak, Kelantan, Penang and Sabah, all of which have their own anti-hopping laws.
