Dissolving the state assembly is the best way to return the mandate to the people – Political analyst

KUALA LUMPUR: The dissolution of the Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly (DUN) is seen as the best step to enable the people to determine a new government with a clear mandate and strong support to govern the state. Political columnist and analyst Dr Ahmad Zaharuddin Sani Ahmad Sabri said Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun's decision to request the dissolution of the state assembly was probably made because the Negeri Sembilan Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman believed that the state government needed to have comprehensive support to ensure that the administration could run smoothly. He said if a government feels it no longer has sufficient mandate, it is better for the mandate to be returned to the people to make decisions. "He (Aminuddin) felt it was necessary for the government to run smoothly to administer the state in good conditions and since he felt he did not receive a comprehensive mandate, it was better for the state assembly to be dissolved and the mandate given back to the people." "The people can determine the better party to form a new government, one that receives a new mandate and strong support from the State Assemblymen (ADUNs), so that the existing government is more solid and strong," he told Bernama TV on Friday. The Negeri Sembilan State Assembly, which has 36 seats, was officially dissolved today to make way for the 16th State Election (PRN). Aminuddin announced this at a special press conference at his official residence last night, after receiving the approval of the Yang Dipertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, thus ending speculation over the dissolution of the state assembly over the past few weeks. Meanwhile, Ahmad Zaharuddin Sani said that even though an institution is still functioning, the situation should not continue if the government does not receive solid support from the assemblymen. Commenting on the role of the state government after the dissolution of the state assembly, he said the interim government had limited powers and could only continue matters that had been approved previously. He said the caretaker government cannot present a new budget or increase allocations to any party during that period, but instead only carry out existing administrative affairs until a new government is formed after the election. In the 15th general election, the PH and Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition succeeded in forming the government in Negeri Sembilan when it controlled 31 out of 36 state seats, with PH and BN winning 17 and 14 seats respectively, while Perikatan Nasional (PN) won five seats. -- BERNAMA
