    Will PAS Majority Cause Market Uncertainty

    Markets hate uncertainty and the outcome of the elections on who will form the government is still unknown. While most political pundits and equity analysts expected a hung parliament, the surprise was a possible PAS led PN government which may spook investors. This may bring into question what roles they may play in key ministries. There may also be possible changes in the Budget and may incorporate policies from its own PN Manifesto. Will the market find a PH coalition with the Borneo bloc more palatable? We speak to Pankaj C. Kumar, business commentator for some answers.Image credit: Shutterstock See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The Silver Lining In A Hung Parliament

    Malaysians woke up to a hung Parliament for the first time in the history of our elections. As many analysts predicted, no coalition won an outright majority of seats in Parliament to form a government. Should we be anxious about the fact we don’t yet have a government, or is there a silver lining amidst all the uncertainty? Political scientist Dr. Wong Chin Huat makes the case for optimism in coalition politics. Image credit: Shutterstock See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
