JOHOR BAHRU, June 1 — Johor Pakatan Harapan (PH) is prepared to face the upcoming state election following the dissolution of the state legislative assembly.
In a joint statement, Johor PH said the coalition had expected that Johor Barisan Nasional (BN) would dissolve the assembly soon to pave way for an election.
“From the start, PH expected BN to dissolve the state assembly in the near future.
“In the spirit of democracy, PH will continue with existing preparations to face this election,” read the statement that was released tonight.
The statement was co-signed by Johor PH chairman and Johor Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah) chief Aminolhuda Hassan; Johor PKR chief Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa; and Johor DAP chief Teo Nie Ching.
PH Johor also announced that it will hold discussions at the coalition’s Presidential Council level at the national level to plan its next steps.
“For us, there is no easy election. PH is prepared to make the best effort possible to win this state election,” read the statement.
In a related note, the coalition also criticised the June 22 special one-day state legislative assembly sitting, describing it as illogical.
The notice for the June 22 state legislative assembly sitting was widely expected to announce the dissolution of the Johor state assembly.
Earlier, Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi announced the dissolution of the state legislative assembly.
This effectively paves the way for the state’s upcoming election.
