PAS-Umno showdown looms in several states

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: A showdown between Muafakat Nasional (MN) partners looms in at least four states around the country, with Terengganu Umno set to contest all seats in the state at the next general election.

Umno’s coalition partner PAS holds 22 of the 32 seats in the state assembly and six of the eight parliamentary seats.

Showdowns are already imminent in Johor, where Umno is not ready to give up any seats to PAS, and in states like Perak and Selangor where the two parties are already at loggerheads.

In Terengganu, Umno has declared it would contest all the seats, both state and parliamentary.
