A general election will be held in Malaysia on 5 May, the Election Commission said, in what is seen as a major test for Prime Minister Najib Razak's ruling coalition1.
马来西亚选举委员会称，5月5日将举行大选，这次选举被认为是对总理纳吉布·拉扎克执政联盟的一次考验。
The governing party has been in power for a 56-year period. However, the opposition2 has been gaining ground on a pledge to end corruption3.
In 2008, the ruling National Front lost its two-thirds parliamentary majority for the first time.
Formal campaigning starts on 20 April.
Mr Najib dissolved parliament last week and will serve as caretaker prime minister until the elections.
In recent weeks, he has been highlighting Malaysia's economic successes under his leadership, as well as giving cash handouts4.
On Saturday, he unveiled his manifesto5 pledging cash for the poor and more affordable6 living costs.
Opinion polls suggest a narrow win for the National Front, and Mr Najib faces pressure to return the party to its two-thirds majority in parliament.
