In Umno, whispers of clearing out Bersatu’s friends - superadmin - 11-26-2022 PETALING JAYA: Umno members have turned their attention inward towards a party clean-up after having seen the party navigate through an impasse between Perikatan Nasional (PN) and Pakatan Harapan (PH) over who would form a government after the general election (GE15). “There’s a need for us to clean house. There are still some among us who are pro-Bersatu,” said a high-ranking Umno leader. Bersatu, which mainly comprises former Umno members, is the dominant party in PN with Muhyiddin Yassin as its president. Earlier this week, Muhyiddin said he had statutory declarations (SDs) from 10 Barisan Nasional (BN) MPs backing him to become prime minister. “All 10 retracted their SDs,” said the Umno leader, “but it’s too late, they’ve shown their hand. We know they are not loyal to the party.” - More -
