This may bring into question what roles they may play in key ministries. There may also be possible changes in the Budget and may incorporate policies from its own PN Manifesto. Will the market find a PH coalition with the Borneo bloc more palatable? We speak to Pankaj C. Kumar, business commentator for some answers.
