IPOH: Three leaders of the Pakatan Harapan coalition partners arrived at the Istana Kinta today for an audience with Perak ruler Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah.
Perak DAP chairman Nga Kor Ming was the first to arrive at 10.40am, followed by Perak PKR head Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak and Amanah state chief Asmuni Awi.

Faizal had an audience with the Sultan yesterday. He said he was not advising a dissolution of the state assembly in view of the Covid-19 situation in the country.
He said he would give way to this successor and would act as menteri besar in the interim period.
