PETALING JAYA: The unity government stands to lose between 13 and 26 parliamentary seats in Peninsular Malaysia should the pact fail to deal with the lingering distrust Barisan Nasional supporters feel towards Pakatan Harapan.
This distrust among Barisan supporters was reflected in their voting trend during the state election in 2023 (SE15), as well as the Kuala Kubu Bharu (Selangor) and Sungai Bakap (Penang) by-elections in which the alliance worked together.
