PETALING JAYA: An analyst has dismissed the possibility of Pejuang making any difference to Perikatan Nasional’s (PN) political strength if it joins the coalition.

Speaking to FMT, Council of Professors fellow Jeniri Amir said Pejuang did not have enough members and was too starved of impressive leaders to benefit PN.

“In terms of leadership, there is nothing it can be proud of,” he said. “With Mukhriz Mahathir leading the party, it doesn’t have any wow factor.

“You can see what happened in the last general election (GE15). Pejuang did not only lose in every seat it contested, but all its candidates also lost their deposit.”

In GE15, Pejuang vied for 115 parliamentary and 43 state seats but none of its candidates made an impact with voters.
