PETALING JAYA: Despite Umno suffering heavy defeats at the polls since the 15th general election (GE15) last November, party leaders will continue toeing the line and abiding by the wishes of their president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, say two analysts.

Even if Umno’s losing streak were to continue, political analyst Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani said, calls for a revival of Muafakat Nasional (MN) – Umno’s now-defunct pact with PAS – would remain muted as long as Zahid was leading the party.

“To a certain extent, there is a desire to work with PAS, especially at the grassroots level. There is still distrust of Anwar Ibrahim and DAP among supporters and party members,” he told FMT.
