The chances of a PAS assemblyperson becoming the next Selangor menteri besar is bright, according to Malay daily Sinar Harian.
This is if the ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah rejects PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail or any other PKR candidate for the post.
In an analysis of the political imbroglio, the daily said besides PKR, PAS is the only other party in Pakatan Rakyat with Muslim candidates, who can become menteri besar.
"Furthermore, PAS now holds 15 state seats and PKR only 13 (following the sacking of Abdul Khalid Ibrahim).
"PAS also has good and experienced candidates for MB as they have PAS Selangor chief Iskandar Abdul Samad (Chempaka assemblyperson and exco), Dr Ahmad Yunus Hairi (state exco), Sallehen Mukhyi (exco) and Dr Halimah Ali (exco)."
In a separate report, Sinar Harian quoted political analyst Professor Sivamurugan Pandian as saying that Iskandar is qualified to replace Khalid should the sultan reject the PKR candidates.
