Warisan in driver’s seat after nation’s political stalemate, says analyst - superadmin - 07-15-2021 KOTA KINABALU: Warisan could find itself back in the political limelight both at state and federal levels after Umno retracted its support for Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin last week. Socio-political analyst Awang Azman Pawi said the question mark over Muhyiddin’s majority support has placed Warisan in a somewhat pivotal position. Although Sabah Umno chief Bung Moktar Radin said last week his party will ensure Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) remains intact, Awang Azman said Umno will need Warisan’s help to form the next state government in the event the party does pull out of the coalition. “This is the role that Warisan could play where it can actively shift support under the principle that there are no permanent friends and enemies in politics … the only thing that’s permanent is a political party’s interest,” he told FMT. - More -
