PETALING JAYA: An alliance between Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional could materialise with a change in BN’s leadership, say analysts.

James Chin, a professor of Asian Studies at the University of Tasmania, said this could happen if BN was no longer under current chairman Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

“If it was under the likes of Ismail Sabri Yaakob, Hishammuddin Hussein or those who are against the coalition government of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, then yes, of course, party leadership makes a difference (in whether BN allies itself with PN),” Chin told FMT.

Similarly, Council of Professors fellow Jeniri Amir agreed a change in BN’s leadership could see a shift in the political alliance landscape.

“A change in leadership will probably change the (coalition’s) political stand, and probably the new leadership would like to have a different alliance,” Jeniri told FMT.
