KUALA LUMPUR, May 6 — Madani Government spokesman Datuk Fahmi Fadzil has reaffirmed that the Negeri Sembilan Unity Government remains under Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun.
Fahmi, who is also communications minister, said issues surrounding the state administration were resolved during a meeting between top Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Harapan leaders yesterday.
“Any issues that arise moving forward will be referred to the top leadership in accordance with agreements reached among component parties of the Unity Government,” he said at a weekly press conference in Angkasapuri today.
Also present were Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching and Communications Ministry secretary-general Datuk Abdul Halim Hamzah.
Yesterday, the Unity Government Leadership Consultative Council agreed to maintain political cooperation in Negeri Sembilan to ensure administrative stability and public well-being.
The decision was reached at a meeting jointly chaired by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, who is also Harapan chairman, and Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who is BN chairman.
On April 27, 14 UMNO assemblymen withdrew support for Aminuddin.
Meanwhile, Fahmi dismissed speculation over possible state elections in Melaka, Johor and Negeri Sembilan, saying no such discussions had taken place.
The remarks follow reports that DAP had instructed its machinery to prepare for the possibility of snap polls if the state legislative assemblies are dissolved.
DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke Siew Fook said the directive was announced at the party’s central executive committee meeting, which also covered the political situation in Negeri Sembilan.
