Terengganu state assembly to dissolve tomorrow
KUALA TERENGGANU, June 27 — The Terengganu State Legislative Assembly will be officially dissolved tomorrow to pave the way for state polls.
Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar said the Sultan of Terengganu Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin had consented to the proposed date during an audience at Istana Syarqiyyah here this morning.
In a posting on Facebook, Ahmad Samsuri said Clause 44 (2) of the Laws of the Constitution of Terengganu (First Part) stated that the Sultan has the power to dissolve the state assembly.
“As such, Sultan Mizan in exercising the powers conferred under Clause 44(2) of the Laws of the Constitution of Terengganu (First Part) has graciously consented to dissolve the State Assembly on Wednesday, 9th of Zulhijjah or June 28, 2023,” he said.
The state assembly’s five-year mandate shall expire on June 30.
Terengganu is among the six states to hold the state polls besides Selangor, Penang, Negeri Sembilan, Kedah, and Kelantan as they did not dissolve their state assemblies in time for the 15th General Election in November last year. — Bernama
