Negeri Sembilan Umno’s request to be given additional state seats in the upcoming state polls will be discussed by Pakatan Harapan (PH) at the state level.
State PH chairman Aminuddin Harun said the final decision would be made by the PH Presidential Council and a meeting was expected to be held in a month’s time.
“We had a meeting (with Umno) and, Alhamdulillah, everything went well as there was reasonable understanding.
“It’s normal that in a discussion, requests will be made. I will bring up the matter for the consideration of my colleagues in PH,” he told reporters after the launch of the Negeri Sembilan Rahmah sales initiative here today.
On Wednesday, state Umno liaison committee chairman Jalaluddin Alias said he had met with Aminuddin for preliminary talks with his PH counterpart to seek an agreement for two extra seats and to avoid any clashes between their respective candidates.
Aminuddin, who is also Negeri Sembilan menteri besar, said cooperation between PH and Barisan Nasional (BN) in the state was getting stronger, especially after the Santunan Kasih Ramadan programme at the Jelebu parliamentary constituency service centre yesterday.
