Malaysia GE15 (BN can get Pahang CM/MB if join force with PKR)

The Alliance coalition, a.k.a. BN (Barisan National) would be the King maker to form a new government for Malaysia in the 15th General Election based on the latest results.

If BN join force with PN (Perikatan National) who had won 73 seats out of the total 222 Parliament seats, then the other smaller party in Sabah and Sarawak will join force as well to form a new central government. In this case, it is reasonable to believe that the same would be happened for the Perak State and Pahang State. However, BN would NOT be able to get the Chief Minister or Menteri Besar position for the Pahang State although BN had won 16 seats but only 1 seat less than the PN's 17 seats. 

If BN join force with PKR (Pakatan Harapan) who had won 82 seats, then they would gain simple majority of 112 seats to form a new central government. In this case BN would also be able to get the Chief Minister or Menteri Besar position for the Pahang State while PKR would secure its Chief Minister or Menteri Besar position for the Perak State with the support from BN to form Perak State government.
