Amending the state constitution to enable the appointment of five assemblypersons in Malacca state legislative assembly will not stop defection of government lawmakers, said Khoo Poay Tiong (Harapan-Kota Melaka).
Yesterday, BN deputy chief and the coalition's election director Mohamad Hasan said having more lawmakers will ensure political stability - the main thrust of BN's election manifesto.
He said the five appointed lawmakers will include youths and non-political figures.
