KUALA LUMPUR, July 17 — Political parties and political coalitions may have to form pragmatic alliances to work together after the 15th general elections due to be called next year, as the model of a single coalition government — which the longest-ruling coalition Barisan Nasional had practised for decades — is now a thing of the past, DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke reportedly said.

“Even BN is not confident they can form a government on their own... If you ask today if Umno or BN have a fixed formula to regain their strength, I don’t think so. So do we . I think we are still searching,” he was quoted saying in an interview with news portalLoke believed it would be unlikely for political parties to strike such political alliances before the general election, and said it would likely take place after election results.

“I don’t think horse-trading or negotiation will take place before the election. Depending on the outcome of the polls, then I think parties and coalitions will have to think rationally about what is the way forward for the country,” the former transport minister added. He also noted that the federal government and PH had also signed on such cooperation via a memorandum of understanding , noting: “To a certain extent, the signing of the memorandum of understanding has opened up some possibilities, which people never thought of before. We were, of course, criticised by some, but until today I will still defend it as the right thing to do.
