Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has raised the possibility of a state of emergency in Malacca in order to postpone snap polls amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
This was after Malacca Governor Mohd Ali Mohd Rustam dissolved the State Assembly on the advice of Chief Minister Sulaiman Md Ali.
Sulaiman had made the request in a bid to stave off Sungai Udang assemblyperson Idris Haron, who had tried to bring down his government.
The dissolution was gazetted today and a snap election must be called within 60 days.
Zahid said the Election Commission should consult with the National Security Council (NSC) and the Health Ministry on holding the election.
