Tough for PN to win Negeri Sembilan, ‘green wave’ diminishing, says analyst

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: Perikatan Nasional will find it difficult to wrest Negeri Sembilan from Pakatan Harapan as the “green wave”, which saw Muhyiddin Yassin’s coalition secure 74 seats in the last general election, is weakening, an analyst said.

Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara said the “green wave” was powerful four months ago, which was why PN won in Padang Serai, Kedah, even though PH had joined forces with Barisan Nasional.

The election for the parliamentary constituency was held on Dec 7 – just over a week after the unity government was formed – following the death of the PH candidate. PN won with a 16,260-vote majority.

But now, PN stood no chance, Azmi said.
