Datuk Seri Najib holding a press conference with the 'defected' Opposition leaders.
Letters of defection from the PKR and DAP lawmakers 
The Perak State government under the Pakatan Rakyat coalition collapsed with the 'walk-out' of its 3 lawmakers, 2 from PKR and 1 from DAP, to the Barisan Nasional coalition.The Mentri Besar of Perak had a 2 hour audience with the Sultan this evening to urge the Sultan to dissolve the State Legislative Assembly, paving the way for a fresh State elections.
In the meantime, at Putrajaya, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak at a press conference attended by the 3 'missing' Opposition lawmakers Hee Yit Foong(DAP-Jelapang), Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi (PKR-Behrang) and Osman Jailu (PKR- Changkat Jering) and Bota Assemblyman Datuk Nasarudin Hashim, informed that the Barisan Nasional is on its way to form the next State government and would meet the Perak Sultan of their intention since they command the majority.
The Perak State is in turmoil and from sentiments at the ground, the rakyat feel that the Sultan should call a fresh election to resolve this problem.
We need to wait and see the developments that follow.

Kamal, I voted for change and hope my vote is not wasted at this time in where I stay. But the destruction and death of PR is not by 'friendly fire' but by 'friendly independent'. The eagerness of BN to form the next government shows that power does corrupt and principles are all set aside. The fact that Najib is ok with back-door entry tactics and condone frogs tactics to gain power, puts in as among the rest of the hypocrites make themselves to be clean or worse is on the side of change. Nothing has changed in this incident for BN. Instead of back to the drawing board, it's back to the corrupt ole ways. The Sultan we pray is on the side of the matured subjects over the immature politicians
In the case of the two ADUNs who were facing corruption charges, I gues it was a "carrot" offered to bring them over.
I wonder about the DAP ADUN and the BN forg who lompat from side to side. Was it a carrot or a stick ?
