7. Why does Loke prefer dissolution over a no-confidence motion against Aminuddin?

Question

## Loke prefers dissolving the Negeri Sembilan assembly because he says the political situation has become a “trust issue” and dissolution would avoid the risk of a no-confidence motion or budget defeat when the assembly reconvenes.

Accepted Answer

Loke said voters should be given the mandate again after 14 Barisan Nasional assemblymen withdrew support for Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun, placing the state unity government’s position in doubt. He argued there is “no choice” because the withdrawal created a trust problem, and he said dissolving the assembly is preferable to facing a no-confidence motion against Aminuddin or the defeat of the state budget in the assembly.
