Kosovo's Leader Signals End to Deadlock With Possible Coalition

Kosovo's prime minister opened the door to a power-sharing agreement with a small opposition party as pressure mounts to break a political deadlock that's left the country without a functioning parliament for nearly four months. 'We've expressed our interest and readiness to co-govern with the Social Democratic Initiative,' Albin Kurti said Monday during a press conference, confirming he made a concrete offer during a weekend meeting. But he said talks are still ongoing, declining to elaborate on details.

No coalition partner should act like ‘big brother', says Salleh

Sabah BN treasurer Salleh Said Keruak, a former chief minister, said the new formula was about 'political accommodation' and not merely power-sharing. (Bernama pic) PETALING JAYA : No party in Barisan Nasional should act like a 'big brother', Sabah BN treasurer Salleh Said Keruak said today, revealing that the coalition was looking into a new formula for power-sharing in the state government. Salleh, a former chief minister, said Sabah BN was exploring a new formula that would ensure fair political representation among the state's diverse communities, the New Straits Times reported. The new formula was not just about power-sharing, but 'political accommodation,' he was quoted as saying. 'We feel that in any coalition, no party should act like a 'big brother'. We need a formula that can satisfy everyone.' When asked what formula he had in mind, Salleh said Sabah BN would use past models as a guide. He said previously Bumiputeras were divided into Muslims and non-Muslims. 'We should discuss (the matter) so that we can consider Bumiputera to mean both Muslim Bumiputera and non-Muslim Bumiputera.' Salleh also said BN was preparing a draft commitment for Sabahans to tackle the state's fundamental issues, which he personally pledged to lead.
