Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's coalition suffered a decisive defeat in the Johor state election on Saturday, losing to a key partner in the federal unity government. The result has prompted analysts to question the durability of the alliance at the national level. Speculation about an early general election has intensified following the outcome.
A unity government that cannot survive a state election against itself is less a coalition and more a custody battle with better branding. The partner that just humiliated the PM's slate now returns to the federal cabinet to govern alongside the people it campaigned against — a seating arrangement that would make a family therapist weep. Our analysts confirm the memo on 'shared vision' was apparently lost in translation between Putrajaya and Johor Bahru.
