PETALING JAYA: PKR is “desperate” to win as many seats as possible in Johor, which is why several PKR leaders have spoken out against giving Muda what are seen as easy seats in the state elections, says an analyst.

James Chin of the University of Tasmania’s Asia Institute said many in PKR are unhappy that the leaders had been considering giving “good seats” to Muda, as the PKR members believed their party could do well in Johor.

He said PKR was not strongly against working with Muda but was simply “in big trouble” after its dismal performance in the Melaka and Sarawak elections where it lost in all seats contested.
