| Summary/Abstract |
In the 14th general election in Malaysia, the opposition coalition overturned the ruling coalition’s entrenched incumbency of over six decades. The ruling coalition suffered from a legitimacy deficit and corruption scandals. The election witnessed four coalitions of parties, but these coalitions have been ephemeral, and Malaysian politics continues to be based on racial arithmetic.

| Summary/Abstract |
As Malaysia and China have become “comprehensive strategic partners”
since 2013, the bilateral relations of these two countries have been
getting stronger. However, party-to-party relations between the two
countries have not received much scholarly attention. This article
discusses the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) interactions with the
Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition and its main component parties,
United Malays National Organization (UMNO) and Malaysian Chinese
Association (MCA) in Malaysia. It discusses the origins of China’s
party-based diplomacy, the actual development in this area of diplomacy
between Malaysia and China, and the implications of this kind of
party-based diplomacy. It suggests that one of the main activities
carried out under party-based diplomacy is for CCP to offer its
governing lessons to other ruling parties, which has not been discussed
much by other analysts of China’s party-based diplomacy

| Summary/Abstract |
The March 2008 general elections fundamentally altered Malaysian politics. The ruling coalition lost its two-thirds majority in the national Parliament and five state assemblies, and Prime Minister Abdullah was forced to announce his resignation. The opposition also stands the chance of forming the national government in the near future.

| Summary/Abstract |
The results of Malaysia’s 14th General Elections held in May this year were unexpected and transformative. Against conventional wisdom, the newly-reconfigured opposition grouping Pakatan Harapan decisively defeated the incumbent Barisan Nasional. Despite a long-running financial scandal dogging the incumbents, an opposition victory had been all but discarded due to the advantages of incumbency, a deep fissure amongst opposition ranks, and a favourable economic outlook. Notwithstanding this, deeply-rooted political dynamics and influential actors came together, reconfiguring the country’s political landscape in the process. In order to understand the elections and their implications, this article sets out the country’s institutional context and then identifies key drivers and agents of change. From there, it assesses the conduct of the elections, analyses their results, and explores implications for the future.

| Summary/Abstract |
The incumbent coalition claimed victory in Malaysia's 13th general elections in May 2013, securing a simple majority of parliamentary seats despite losing the popular vote. The dramatic result raises questions not only about the probity of the electoral process in Malaysia but also about the future of party politics there.

| Summary/Abstract |
Dubbed the 'political tsunami', the 8 March 2008 elections in Malaysia gave overwhelming results. Selangor is one of the five states now governed by the Pakatan Rakyat coalition. This was a significant win, being the most urban and lucrative state of the country. It has been considered a model state for the Pakatan Rakyat in its desire to position itself as an alternative federal government. This has been the mandate of the new Selangor government, but its execution has been accompanied by numerous obstacles. This paper analyses the distinctive reform measures undertaken by the state government, the challenges faced, ensuing political transformation, and long-term prospects for Pakatan Rakyat in Selangor.
