Is The State Elections A Litmus Test For PH-BN?

Six states that did not hold concurrent elections during the 15th general election last November must do so this year as their five-year mandate comes to an end. Aside from the dates, all eyes are on Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Harapan as to whether their cooperation at the federal level will continue in these state polls. But can a collaboration be strong enough to take on Perikatan Nasional? For some answers, we speak to Adib Zalkapli, Director, BowerGroupAsia.
