SHAH ALAM: Discussions to avoid three-cornered fights among PAS, Umno and Bersatu in the Melaka state election in November are underway, according to PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man.

He said there should be a consensus among the three parties, especially on the distribution of seats, to minimise clashes.

“If we can’t avoid (clashes) in one or two (seats), we have to face them. But at least there should not be too many three-cornered contests as it will be detrimental to all parties.

“Therefore, we must have consensus, InsyaAllah there will be a way out,” he told reporters after officiating the PAS Selangor building in Section 13 here last night.

Tuan Ibrahim said the three parties needed to focus on winning seats they had not won before in Melaka.
