AI Summary
Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi confirmed no formal seat negotiations have occurred with Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) for the upcoming Sabah state election. Three-cornered fights are anticipated due to the involvement of multiple parties, including new entrants. While BN and Pakatan Harapan (PH) will avoid overlapping seats, respecting the PH-GRS negotiations, no direct BN-GRS talks have taken place. Zahid acknowledged back-channel discussions to minimize multi-cornered contests, but the crowded political landscape makes them likely. GRS's demand for a majority of seats has stalled potential coalition talks.
