PAS no longer keen on Muafakat Nasional, says Umno veteran - superadmin - 03-31-2021 PETALING JAYA: It is clear that PAS is no longer interested in strengthening its Muafakat Nasional (MN) pact with Umno, party veteran Shahrir Abdul Samad said after the Islamist party announced it would strengthen its cooperation with PPBM in the coming general election. Shahrir said with that stand, Umno ministers also do not have to wait for Parliament to be dissolved to leave the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government led by Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin. “PAS and PPBM are rejecting any attempts to threaten the PN government. PAS is no longer strengthening MN which now belongs only to Umno and Barisan Nasional. “The latest joint statement by PPBM and PAS defending the PN government puts BN lawmakers in an awkward position. There is now no need for them to wait until Parliament is dissolved,” he said in a Facebook post. - More -
