PETALING JAYA: A merger of PKR and Amanah would benefit both parties as it could help Pakatan Harapan (PH) attract rural Malay votes, according to political analyst Azmi Hassan.

However, he told FMT, there might be a backlash from some PKR leaders.

The former academic said PKR was currently relying only on its president, Anwar Ibrahim, to woo rural Malay voters and it was hard for the party to draw those votes away from PAS and Umno because the strength of its other leaders was in mixed urban areas.

He said Amanah could help it draw rural voters who found PAS’ “extreme religious views” unattractive.
