‘Six states may hold state elections simultaneously’


SHAH ALAM: Selangor and five other state governments are in the midst of informal discussions on holding state elections simultaneously next year as part of a cost-cutting measure, says Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

The Gombak MP said that informal discussions with the state governments of Penang and Negri Sembilan, as well as the PAS-led states of Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu for a joint dissolution were ongoing to enable state elections to take place at the same time.
