Perlis Menteri Besar Abu Bakar Hamzah has now served for over six months since taking the oath of office. Throughout this period, he has consistently stressed the importance of maintaining the stability of the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government, aiming for it to last at least until the end of its term.

This emphasis on stability was echoed in the recent opening of the fourth session of the 15th State Legislative Assembly of Perlis. The Sultan of Perlis, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Jamalullail, once again urged for an end to disruptions, calling for Abu Bakar to be given the space to lead the state government until the conclusion of its mandate.

The article, titled "More than six months, let's 'move on' together," suggests a sentiment of looking forward after this initial period. While the specifics of future plans are not detailed, the title implies a collective desire to progress and focus on governance beyond the initial phase of establishing stability.

The Sultan of Perlis, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Jamalullail, once again reminded that there should be no disturbances by giving space to Abu Bakar to lead the state government until the end of the term.
