Bersatu to take PN membership dispute to RoS

Bersatu claims PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang is actually in control of PN and that coalition chairman Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar is merely a puppet leader.

Bersatu to take PN membership dispute to RoS

Two days ago, PAS accused Bersatu of no longer being a member of Perikatan Nasional (PN) due to PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang's intent to form a new coalition. Bersatu information chief Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz alleged that PAS continually disregarded PN's constitution and Supreme Council decisions. He claimed that PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang holds ultimate control over PN, with Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar, a PAS vice-president, merely playing a puppet role.

Tun Faisal stated that PN must be governed fairly, transparently, and with integrity as per the constitution. PAS president Hadi asserted that Bersatu was no longer a PN component, citing Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin's statement about forming a new coalition post-Negeri Sembilan state elections. Bersatu secretary-general Azmin Ali refuted Hadi's claim, asserting there is no provision in PN's constitution for the automatic withdrawal of a party's membership.
