PETALING JAYA: Amirudin Shari should be retained as the Selangor menteri besar for a second term, analysts said amid speculation that he may be replaced by another Pakatan Harapan leader.
Rumours of a leadership change emerged after PH failed to secure a two-thirds majority in Saturday’s Selangor state elections, where PH won 32 seats and Perikatan Nasional claimed 22. PH ally Barisan Nasional won the other two seats in the 56-seat state assembly.
However, two analysts FMT spoke to said PH should not replace Selangor PH chief Amirudin as he was not to blame for PN’s strong showing in Selangor.
PN component parties Bersatu and PAS only won seven seats in the last state elections in 2018.
