“The rejection of the Rekyats in the state elections was due to their frustration with what had happened and especially with the uncertain course of economic issues and cost of living.

As long as it is within the legal framework and the democratic system, which is the essence of the country, everything is possible,” he said.

“The results of the last six state elections, in which we (PN) won 146 out of 245 seats, point to a shift in voter sentiment and a clear imperative for change.

Umno high councilor Datuk Mohd Puad Zarkashi hoped the proposal would be presented at a high council meeting.

“If there is a need for a written memorandum or agreement, a memorandum of understanding or a trust and supply agreement like those signed before, I think it should be discussed appropriately.”
“Even in his speech at the end of the state elections, the Prime Minister called for reconciliation and unity to rebuild our nation.
“Such a compromise is important for stability because it provides greater confidence for investors, as well as certainty and consistency in economic policies, which is important for creating a favorable ecosystem for investors.”
