PETALING JAYA: An Umno Supreme Council member has questioned Perikatan Nasional’s commitment to multiracial support, suggesting that recent exits by Bersatu members arose from the lack of support among Chinese voters.
Puad Zarkashi said the two assemblymen who recently quit Bersatu had won in the previous general election because of Chinese support.
Larkin assemblyman Izhar Ahmad left the party yesterday, a few days after the resignation of former Puteri Wangsa assemblyman Mazlan Bujang.
Puad predicted that many more would leave Bersatu.
Puad said the Chinese made up 60% of voters in Puteri Wangsa. “This time round, they are not confident that Chinese voters will back Bersatu,” he said in a Facebook post.
