Johor Speaker Denies Receiving Letter on State Assembly Dissolution

Johor State Legislative Assembly Speaker Suhaizan Kaiat has confirmed that he has not received any letter pertaining to the dissolution of the state assembly. This includes any correspondence from Mentri Besar Datuk Hasni Mohammad regarding such a matter. Suhaizan made this clarification in a telephone conversation on January 20.
No Official Communication Received

Speaker Suhaizan Kaiat explicitly stated that as of January 20, he had not received any official letter concerning the dissolution of the Johor state legislative assembly. He confirmed that no such communication, including one from the Mentri Besar, had reached his office.
Rumours of Dissolution Circulating

The denial comes amidst circulating rumours suggesting that the Johor state assembly would be dissolved by Sunday. These rumours were reportedly fuelled by a news portal report, which, citing unnamed Umno sources, alleged that an application letter for dissolution had been sent to the Speaker's office.
Political Context of Speculation

Speculation about a potential snap state election in Johor had intensified following the death of Kempas assemblyman Datuk Osman Sapian on December 21. Osman's passing, as a member of the ruling Perikatan Nasional coalition, had reportedly reduced the state government's majority to a single seat in the Johor State Assembly.
