GE15 – every single vote matters


MALAYSIA’S 15th General Election (GE15) on Nov 19 is likely to have far-reaching consequences for the future direction of this nation’s politics. If no party or coalition wins a thundering majority, an era of coalition politics, like the one under caretaker Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob and scores of parliamentary democracies around the world, may become the norm.

This is not altogether a bad thing if one looks at the significant Constitutional reforms brought about by the shaky but enduring coalition headed by Ismail Sabri and his ability to work with the Opposition on matters of common interest.
