Pas attempts to revive Muafakat Nasional, again
Pas is attempting to revive Muafakat Nasional with Umno again.
Its spiritual advisor Datuk Hashim Jasin claimed that the opposition towards MN is only from Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and some top leaders whereas the grassroots are all for it.
Umno president and several top leaders were the only people rejected, but many in Umno actually wanted to work together in MN.
“When Umno rejects, people will also be able to assess who is actually creating obstacles towards cooperation within this MN,” he was quoted in Mingguan Malaysia.
Umno and Pas was formerly in Muafakat Nasional, a loose unregistered coalition before they parted ways.
Pas currently is with Bersatu in Perikatan Nasional, the opposition alliance.
