Bersatu never part of Muafakat plan, Tok Mat tells PAS

KUALA LUMPUR – Bersatu was never part of the plan when Muafakat Nasional (MN) inked its political charter in September 2019, said Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan amid the souring relationship between Umno and PAS. 

In a Facebook post today, the Umno number two said the reason MN was formed was to fight Pakatan Harapan (PH), a coalition Bersatu was a part of then.

“As such, to force Umno to accept Bersatu is against the true spirit of MN’s formation, what more when we reminisce how Bersatu has conspired with DAP in defeating the Umno-led (federal) government,” he said.

Mohamad said this in response to a remark by PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang yesterday that Umno’s decision to violate the MN charter, by rejecting the inclusion of Bersatu, was the reason why the Islamist party no longer wants to be part of the pact.

Hadi had said, under the charter, even non-governmental organisations are also to be allowed to join, but claimed Umno failed to ensure this when it came to the matter of implementation.

Mohamad, known as Tok Mat, said while it is true MN should be an umbrella for all the Malays, any party that wishes to join the pact must be in harmony with its interests.

On a similar note, he said the charter must also be interpreted in line with the current political reality of Umno and PAS.
