Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim holds sole authority to advise the Yang di-Pertuan Agong on dissolving the Dewan Rakyat, with the 15th Parliament facing automatic dissolution no later than December 2027 and an election required within 60 days thereafter. Trader focus centers on coalition dynamics within the unity government, where Barisan Nasional leaders including Ahmad Zahid Hamidi have publicly pressed for an earlier poll to seek a fresh mandate, while Pakatan Harapan figures emphasize completing reforms and maintaining the current majority through at least late 2027. Recent state contests in Johor and Negeri Sembilan, plus the imminent Melaka assembly dissolution expected within weeks, serve as key tests of support. Festive periods, budget timing, and internal alliance stability remain central variables that could shift dissolution timing.
