PETALING JAYA: Negri Sembilan PAS has pledged to play an effective role in the state government with Barisan Nasional following the outcome of the just-concluded state polls.
State PAS commissioner Mohd Fairuz Mohd Isa said the party would also serve as a credible representative of the people, champion public welfare, defend the interests of religion, race and the state.
“We will carry the people’s voice with integrity at the Negri Sembilan legislative assembly.
“PAS’ victory in seats like Serting, Paroi, Bagan Pinang and Ampangan is a major responsibility that we will carry out with integrity and commitment,” he said in a statement on Sunday (Aug 2).
He also thanked voters across the state for their support and trust in PAS and Perikatan Nasional during the election.
The Election Commission's official results showed Barisan Nasional won 18 seats, Perikatan seven and Pakatan Harapan 11 in the 36-seat assembly.
PAS won four seats while Wawasan secured the remaining three under the Perikatan banner.
Barisan-Perikatan’s victory gave them a majority in the state assembly, with Umno secretary-general Datuk Seri Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki saying the coalition was confident of forming the Negri Sembilan state government.
