00:00Former Bangi MP Ong Kian Ming has warned that DAP could come under pressure to quit the Madani government
00:06if Barisan Nasional wins the Negeri Sembilan state election next month.
00:12Speaking on the Keluar Sekejap podcast, Ong said the crucial question is whether BN can form the state government
00:18either on its own or with limited support from Perikatan Nasional.
00:23He said a BN win would place immense pressure on DAP to withdraw from the federal administration.
00:30Ong said DAP delegates may vote to resign from their government positions at a special party congress scheduled for August
00:3716.
00:39If they do, BN, GPS and GRS may claim DAP's absence makes the unity government unstable.
00:46This Ong said could put pressure Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim to dissolve parliament.
00:51He added that leaving the government might allow DAP to reclaim the moral high ground and contest independently.
00:58Ong believes the likelihood of such a move will grow if Pakatan Harapan loses the Negeri Sembilan election.
01:06Negeri Sembilan votes on August 1.
