GE15: Penang, Selangor and Negri not dissolving state assemblies this year, says Anwar


KUALA LUMPUR: Pakatan Harapan-led states Penang, Selangor and Negri Sembilan will not be holding their state polls concurrently with the 15th General Election (GE15) if it happens soon, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The coalition chairman said it was decided that the states will not be dissolving its state assemblies in view of the year-end floods following discussions between Pakatan’s presidential council and the mentris besar and chief ministers of the three states.
