GE15: Umno-PAS seat distribution 70pct concluded - Mohamad

 

The seat distribution between Umno and PAS for the 15th general election (GE15) is 70 percent concluded, said Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan.

He said it was decided through several previously held Muafakat Nasional meetings that any party that won a seat before would remain to contest the constituency in GE15.

“Indeed, every time we met, we discussed our preparations for GE15, and at the Muafakat, we also have a seat distribution committee.

“Umno and PAS have met several times, and almost 70 percent (of seat distribution) has been concluded. Just like I said, for the seats we (Umno) won, they are our seats, and for the seats that PAS won, they belong to PAS. 

"The formula is still the same; there is no question for us to change or exit the agreed formula,” he said.

He said this to reporters after attending the opening of the First Meeting of the Fourth Term of the 14th Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly today.

Mohamad, who is also the Rantau assemblyperson, said the Muafakat meeting will be held in the near future after it was postponed several times due to the implementation of the movement control order.
