With general elections around the corner, talk of seat allocations and which candidates will run where is rife. PKR President Dato’ Sri Anwar Ibrahim recently signalled that he would not be defending his seat in Port Dickson, and may instead aim for a seat held by defectors from Pakatan Harapan. On the other side of the aisle, PAS has indicated that they will decide next week on which team to side with during GE15. We speak to political analyst Dr Oh Ei Sun for his analysis on these developments.
