KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 25 — PAS secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan has announced that a motion on political cooperation between Umno and PAS will be discussed at the Islamist party's upcoming annual muktamar. Speaking after attending the forum "Reality and Perception: Don't Politicise Tabung Haji", Takiyuddin said that bridging ties across the Malay-Muslim political landscape is a key focus for the party assembly.
He mentioned that "Muslim unity, as well as political cooperation between PAS and Umno" would be among the motions to be tabled. This announcement follows Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's confirmation on Sunday that his party had accepted an invitation to attend the muktamar. Takiyuddin also shared that talks between Perikatan Nasional and Barisan Nasional regarding a potential partnership for the upcoming Melaka state election are progressing positively, even though a formal agreement has not yet been reached.
He stated that the negotiations have been "very positive" so far, but a formal decision on the method and form of cooperation remains pending.
