MASJID TANAH: The federal government will remain unchanged if Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional win the Melaka election.

Melaka BN chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ab Rauf Yusoh said the speculation arose after some quarters predicted that a new government could be formed following the strong cooperation between the two coalitions in the state election.

"If Melaka can contribute to a good election result through cooperation between Umno and Pas, some quarters would naturally expect a new government to be formed after the next general election.

"However, as things stand today, I do not see any indication that we will threaten the existing government," he said after taking part in a BN motorcycle convoy held as part of its flash mob programme here today.
