KUALA LUMPUR – PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang has expressed confidence that the Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition will form the next government after submitting the required numbers to the Istana Negara this morning.
In a brief message on his Twitter he remarked: “We have the numbers. We have submitted. We shall await the invitation (from Istana Negara).”
Kami dah cukup. Kami dah hantar. Tunggu untuk diundang.

His statement comes after Perikatan Nasional secretary-general Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin confirmed that they have submitted a list of SDs crossing the 112 threshold to form the government to the Istana Negara prior to the 2pm deadline.
However, the deadline to submit a prime minister candidate and coalitions to form the federal government has been pushed to 2pm tomorrow, allowing leaders more time to finalise their negotiations as no single coalition has a simple majority.
Comptroller of the Royal Household Datuk Seri Ahmad Fadil Shamsuddin reiterated in a statement that all political parties and coalition leaders must notify Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Azhar Azizan Harun of their decisions before tomorrow’s deadline.
He also cited the Yang di-Pertuan Agong as saying that the current caretaker government is still under the care of the caretaker prime minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.– The Vibes, November 21, 2022
