KUALA LUMPUR: Umno will need to resolve potential internal issues if there happens to be a clash of views on the Johor menteri besar candidacy following Saturday’s state elections.
Political analyst Sivamurugan Pandian of Universiti Sains Malaysia said this is because throughout the election campaign, only Johor Barisan Nasional chairman Hasni Mohammad was mentioned as the coalition’s choice for menteri besar.
He said if others have their own choices, then they must have the ability to manage the issue well without jeopardising the party’s credibility.
“If Hasni is not appointed, I believe there will be unavoidable internal rifts, as his supporters have been working hard to maintain his popularity as the pillar of BN’s victory in the polls,” he said on Bernama TV’s “Ruang Bicara-PRN Johor Selesai, PRU15 Pula Dicanang” programme last night.
