JASIN: The 15th General Election (GE15) will still proceed even if several states refuse to dissolve their respective state legislative assemblies, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said.

He said this was because every state has the right to dissolve its state assembly at any time.

“I strongly suggest and highly recommend that it (dissolution of state assembly and Parliament) is made simultaneously, but six states have made their decision (not to follow suit).

“So, the GE15 will still proceed as it should be,” he told reporters after opening the Chin Chin 3 Compact Water Treatment Plant here today.
