"We had a meeting with Anwar last week and he stated that a meeting will be held before the Chinese New Year, which is the third week of this month. The meeting will discuss in detail the cooperation of the unity government at the central level, and also at the state level, in facing the state election,” he told a press conference which was also attended by Penang DAP secretary Lim Hui Ying here today.
The six states that will be holding their elections this year are Selangor, Penang, Negri Sembilan, Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu.
