Sticky situation: Pakatan in a pickle over proposed alliance with Muda

KUALA LUMPUR – Pakatan Harapan (PH) appears to be stuck between a rock and a hard place over whether to allow fledgling party Muda a seat at its table, even as discussions on the youth-based outfit’s intention to join the opposition coalition have begun at a sputtering pace.

Snub Muda and face the possibility of a split vote, effectively benefitting Barisan Nasional (BN), the very coalition they are trying to dethrone.

Embrace the party and risk potential internal rift, with certain quarters within PH already expressing their reservations. This is especially so in light of the Johor election in March, when Muda was accused of gatecrashing a number of seats.

Rumours have it that the PH camp is currently at odds over the matter. DAP, in particular, is said to be pushing for a merger. It is understood that most within PKR are against the idea.
