00:00A major blunder by a top Perikatan Nasional leader and unrealistic promises were some

00:07of the reasons behind the coalition's defeat in yesterday's Ninggiri by-election, says

00:12a political analyst.

00:14Ahmad Fauzi Abdul Hamid of University Science Malaysia said, one significant misstep was

00:19the insinuation made by PN Chairman Mohiuddin Yassin against the former Yangdi Pertuan Agong.

00:25He said this greatly affected Malay voters who respect and are fond of the former Agong,

00:29adding the impact was so pronounced that those who would have voted for PN wouldn't

00:33have come out to vote.

00:35Mohiuddin had allegedly made disrespectful remarks about Al-Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad

00:39Shah in an election campaign speech, claiming he had the backing of 115 MPs after the 2022

00:45general election and the Agong should have appointed him as the 10th Prime Minister.

00:50He added that PN made some unrealistic promises, such as wanting to solve the land rights issue

00:54concerning South Kelantan Development Authority within 24 hours.

00:59An activist linked to Pakatan Harpan, Hishamuddin Ghazali, said in his analysis that PASA's

01:04agitation over land issues with Kasidhar and Falkra did not sway voters.

01:09He said the positive efforts of Kasidhar and Falkra under the unity government had effectively

01:13addressed settlers' land claims and revitalized the agencies.
