Seats that changed allegiance
[edit]Aftermath
[edit]As the results were announced in the evening of 9 May, it is recognised that Pakatan Harapan had won a super majority in Selangor state, securing the third term for the coalition the govern the state.[5]
Azmin Ali, as the leader of Pakatan Harapan of Selangor, had seek audience with Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah on the morning of 10 May to informed the Sultan of the result. In the meeting, Azmin also informed the Sultan that Pakatan Harapan of Selangor had announced their support for him to be the returning Menteri Besar. Sultan Sharafuddin is satisfied with the explanation and elected Azmin as the Menteri Besar of Selangor.[6] He was sworn in on the morning of 11 May in front of the Sultan, Tengku Permaisuri Norashikin and members of Selangor Council of the Royal Court at Balairung Seri, Istana Alam Shah.[23] On 13 May, Azmin submitted a list of candidates of Selangor State Executive Council to the Sultan to be considered.[66] The ruler of the state is satisfied with the candidates and they were sworn in at Istana Alam Shah on the next day. In the same ceremony, Sultan Sharafuddin delivered his first address after the general election. He expressed his disappointment over the fractions among the Malays during the election campaign and encouraged the people to reunite once again. The Sultan also reminded the elected state representatives to serve the people well and not to involve themselves with corruption.[67]
However, the then Menteri Besar's name was announced as one of the ministers of the newly formed federal government on 18 May 2018. He was named to head the newly established Ministry of Economic Affairs.[7] He was reportedly surprised by the nomination and had only known of it from Selangor State Secretary, Mohd. Amin Ahmad Ahya.[68] He then arranges a meeting with the Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohamad to discuss his role in the government.[69] Azmin seek audience again with the Sultan of Selangor to discuss the situation since he didn't want to hold the post Menteri Besar and Minister of Economic Affairs at the same time. Selangor Royal Office then released a statement saying that the Sultan had given permission for Azmin to join the federal government and that he will held the Menteri Besar post for the time being while the Sultan consider several candidates to replace him.[70]
On 30 May, Selangor Royal Office released a statement announcing that the swearing in ceremony of the new Menteri Besar would be held on 19 June, after Eid-ul Fitr and Azmin Ali released his position on the same day.[71] Amirudin Shari, the seat holder of Sungai Tua state constituency and a member of Selangor State Executive Council was appointed as the new Selangor Menteri Besar by the Sultan. His swearing in ceremony was held at Istana Alam Shah on 19 June per scheduled.[8]
