“In Perak, it is a known fact that DAP wanted Aziz Bari to be in that post while Amanah wanted either Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin or Asmuni Awi as the mentri besar. These parties have majority seats,” he said. Singapore Institute of International Affairs senior fellow Oh Ei Sun said there are microscopic and macroscopic dimensions to Ahmad Faizal's controversy.

Ahmad Faizal’s state administration has also been accused of awarding a maintenance contract worth RM1.15 billion under the Malaysian Road Records Information System fund to a company without an open tender.
