"Let me make a decision soon," the king told reporters outside the national palace. The king had given political parties until 2 p.m. (0600 GMT) on Tuesday to put together alliances needed for a majority. Significant election gains by an Islamist party added to investors' fears, notably over policies on gambling and alcohol consumption. Its electoral gains have also raised fears in multicultural Malaysia, which has significant ethnic Chinese and ethnic Indian minorities following other faiths. Anwar's coalition won the most seats in the Saturday election with 82, while Muhyiddin's bloc won 73.
Significant election gains by an Islamist party also added to investors' fears, notably over policies on gambling and alcohol consumption. Anwar's coalition entered negotiations with Barisan Nasional, the incumbent coalition and Anwar's longtime rival, on Monday to discuss a potential alliance. Anwar's multiethnic coalition won the most seats in the Saturday election with 82, while Muhyiddin's bloc won 73. It would be another astonishing turnaround in Malaysian politics if Anwar and Barisan forged an alliance: as opposition chief, Anwar has spent much of his career trying to oust Barisan. For the 2018 election, Anwar tied up with mentor-turned-foe Mahathir Mohamad to defeat Barisan.
KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 22 (Reuters) - Malaysian police have cautioned the country's social media users to refrain from posting "provocative" content on race and religion after a divisive general election on Saturday that ended in a hung parliament. The police warning comes as race-based narratives dominated political chatter on social media during and after the election, according to an online hate speech monitoring project run by the Malaysia-based Centre for Independent Journalism. Race and religion are thorny issues in multicultural Malaysia, which has a majority of mostly Muslim ethnic Malays alongside significant ethnic Chinese and ethnic Indian minorities of other faiths. Police said they had detected social media content that touched on racial and religious sentiments and insulted the country's monarchy after the election. Malaysian social media users on Monday reported a slew of posts on short video platform TikTok after the election that mentioned a deadly race riot in Kuala Lumpur on May 13, 1969.

Significant election gains by an Islamist party also added to investors' fears, notably over policies toward gambling and alcohol consumption. Anwar said he met with some leaders from the incumbent Barisan Nasional coalition on Monday to discuss a potential alliance. "I am satisfied as this negotiation was on the need to form a stable government that's inclusive. Its 30 seats in parliament is key for both candidates to cross 112 seats needed to hold a majority. On Monday, Anwar's coalition partnered with Barisan to form regional governments in two states, which also saw inconclusive elections.
Is AI art really art? This California gallery says yes

CNN Business —As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly popular for generating images, a question has roiled the art world: Can AI create art? August Kamp's 2022 digital image "new experimental version, state of the art" is part of the exhibit "Artificial Imagination" at bitforms gallery in San Francisco. The exhibit features art made with and inspired by OpenAI's AI image generation system DALL-E. For Sacks, generative AI systems like DALL-E are “just another tool”, he said, noting that throughout history artists have used past work to create new work in various ways. Marina Zurkow used DALL-E to help create her 2022 piece "A Questionable Tale (#1)".
And for financial markets it begs the question as to whether the extent of the monetary or fiscal tightening currently assumed will ever actually happen. The OBR reckons UK consumer price inflation has now peaked and will back off to a full-year rate of 7.4% next year. But assuming standing market forecasts for energy prices and BoE rates, it then sees inflation fall below zero for eight quarters from the middle of 2024. The BoE also expects headline inflation to plummet into 2024 - and its 'fan chart' of the range of possible outcomes also has an outside chance of deflation then too. Delaying spending cuts until after an election won't help much in that regard if indeed they're seen necessary at all.

Там должны были рассмотреть иск Центризбиркома против решения Апелляционной палаты (АП) о сокращении более чем в три раза избирательных участков для приднестровцев (с 41 до 12). Протестующие требовали, чтобы ВСП отменила это решение, которое лидер ПСРМ Игорь Додон назвал «преступлением против демократии» в Молдове. В PAS решение АП о сокращении участков для приднестровцев прокомментировали весьма расплывчато, отметив, что «поддерживают право всех граждан на свободное голосование на справедливых выборах». Более конкретно высказалась об этом вице-премьер по реинтеграции Ольга Чеботарь, которая расценила решение АП как дискриминацию приднестровцев. В материале «Санду играет в PAS?» NM вместе с экспертами разбирался, можно ли здесь говорить о нарушении законодательных норм или только моральных.

Привычные для молдавских избирателей «русские танки» и «натовские сапоги» сменили в этой предвыборной кампании «смуглые дети», «фашизня» и «приход Антихриста». В связи с этим, по словам Литвиненко, Додон не хочет, чтобы ЦИК запретил или ограничил подвоз избирателей на участки для голосования. Глава офиса AUR в Молдове Влад Билецкий во время предвыборных дебатов призывал избирателей вместе «остановить этот бардак», чтобы партия AUR с партнерами могла сформировать коалицию в будущем парламенте. В противном случае, по словам Билецкого, придется создавать компромиссную коалицию, но в Молдове не было успешного опыта компромиссных коалиций. При этом, по его словам, AUR и в Молдове может попасть в парламент (в Румынии это парламентская партия) и приведет ее туда ПСРМ.
