Pahang Pakatan Harapan (PH) has agreed to work with the state Barisan Nasional (BN) to form the Pahang government after the 15th general election (GE15).

This was confirmed by Pahang DAP chairman Leong Ngah Ngah, today.

"Yes, Pahang PH has agreed to cooperate with Pahang BN, but we are awaiting the official decision from the central leadership," he said briefly.

In GE15, BN obtained 16 state assembly seats, while PH won eight seats with six from DAP, and Perikatan Nasional (PN) obtained 17.

There are 42 seats in the Pahang state assembly, though voting for the Tioman state seat is expected to be held on Dec 7, following the death of PN candidate Md Yunus Ramli last Saturday.
