✦AI Summary
Malaysia's Barisan Nasional coalition is contesting only 25 of 36 seats in the upcoming Negeri Sembilan state polls. The move suggests an ongoing electoral pact with opposition party PAS to consolidate political influence.
Barisan Nasional (BN) will contest 25 seats, amid recent signals by Parti Islam Se-Malaysia (PAS) that it would work with the coalition’s key party United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) in the Aug 1 polls.
