Onn Hafiz retains Johor chief minister post after Barisan Nasional's landslide win
Malaysia's Johor has sworn in Onn Hafiz Ghazi as chief minister for a second term, following Barisan Nasional's sweeping victory in the state election. The oath-taking ceremony was held before the southern state's regent Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim. After two weeks of campaigning, BN had secured a resounding victory, retaining control of the state government with a supermajority. Despite a higher voter turnout than the last state election, BN not only defended its position, but expanded its dominance. Afifah Ariffin reports from Johor Bahru.
