Umno’s ‘truce’ with PPBM won’t last long, says analyst - superadmin - 10-30-2020
PETALING JAYA: A political analyst says an “all-out war” between Umno and PPBM is inevitable and will likely happen once the Covid-19 situation in the country improves.
Speaking to FMT, Kamarul Zaman Yusoff of Universiti Utara Malaysia said Umno’s reiteration that it was committed to a political ceasefire would ensure its support for Budget 2021 which will be tabled in the Dewan Rakyat next week.
“But the writing is on the wall, there will be an all-out war between Umno and PPBM,” he said.
Kamarul was commenting on Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s statement after last night’s five-hour Supreme Council meeting that the party wants a general election once the Covid-19 pandemic is under control.
