PETALING JAYA: The Perikatan Nasional government will always be unstable as there are two core Malay parties fighting for dominance, says an analyst.

James Chin of the University of Tasmania’s Asia Institute said these two parties were Umno and PPBM, both currently part of the ruling administration.

“You have two tigers on the same mountain, and that mountain can only support one,” he said, referring to a popular Chinese proverb.

Chin was speaking at the 2021 Malaysia Outlook and Economic Forum jointly organised by the KSI Institute For Asia Pacific and the Malaysian International Chamber of Commerce and Industry this morning.
