Perak DAP chief says proposed tie-up with Umno fell through as latter only willing to offer exco posts to PKR, Amanah
KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 11 — Perak DAP chief Nga Kor Ming revealed today that the party could not form a state government with Umno as the latter was only willing to allocate executive councillor (exco) posts to PKR and Parti Amanah Negara to resolve the political crisis in Perak.
Nga recounted how a series of negotiations were carried out between DAP and Umno after respective party leaders were granted an audience with Perak Ruler Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah, further adding that no amicable agreement could be reached as Umno were not able to accept the terms of conditions set by PH.
“During the negotiation, Umno made many offers including exco posts to Keadilan (PKR) and Amanah, but excluding the DAP.
“If these offers were accepted, PH Perak will break up as the coalition's unity will be undermined.
