Umno-led Barisan Nasional claims to have a simple majority after teaming up with opposition lawmakers amid an attempt to overthrow the ruler
Barisan Nasional (BN) has declared it secured a simple majority to form a new state administration in Negeri Sembilan by teaming up with five opposition Perikatan Nasional assemblymen, giving them 19 seats in the 36-member assembly. The move creates a crisis for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's coalition government, ahead of a national poll due in less than two years.
