Perak State Legislative Assembly was hung after Bersatu officially pulled out from Pakatan Harapam earlier this week. With Bersatu’s exit, the Perak PH coalition is now left with 28 seats, which consist of 18 DAP assemblymen, six Amanah assemblymen and four PKR assemblymen. With this, the bloc is expected to get a simple majority of 31 seats in the State Assembly, which is sufficient to form a ruling government.
