The 2018 Election (14th General Election, or GE-14) and subsequent developments have fundamentally changed Malaysian politics from one dominated by a permanent coalition to one characterised by a hung parliament and shifting alliances. The situation also reveals the limitations and weaknesses of our political system in managing a one-coalition predominance as in the past, and the fluid multiparty competition currently taking place. Before the next election — due latest on 14 Sept 2023 — is called, more reforms should be put in place to ensure the consolidation of democracy to deal with either a return of the one-coalition predominance or another hung parliament. Failing which, the Malaysian people and the economy would suffer if there are no viable and relevant institutional set-up to ensure political stability and accountability.
