00:00PKR and DAP will never give any of their Kuala Lumpur seats to Barisan Nasional in the next

00:06general election, says an analyst.

00:08James Chin of the University of Tasmania said BN's goal of contesting five seats in the

00:13federal territories was simply a wish list which he believed nobody will take seriously.

00:19He said there was no way PKR or DAP would give any of their KL seats to UMNO as urban

00:24areas are their core areas.

00:27He added that another factor that would prevent the Pakatan Harapan components from making

00:31way for BN is the uncertainty that the latter could win these seats at the polls.

00:36On Sunday, BN Chairman Ahmad Zahid Hamidi expressed hope that the coalition could expand

00:41its presence in the federal territories by contesting five parliamentary seats in the

00:45next general election.

00:47University Malaya's Awang Asmampawi said Zahid's statement showed BN's wish to solidify its

00:52position in urban constituencies though it is essentially at the mercy of DAP and PKR.

00:58He said BN's five-seat goal is realistic as UMNO once dominated urban areas, adding that

01:04focusing on these areas would reflect BN's effort to approach urban voters and understand

01:08their needs.
