PAS shuts door on Bersatu reconciliation, excludes Perikatan ally from muktamar

The Islamist party PAS has shut the door on reconciliation with its coalition partner in Perikatan Nasional (PN), Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu). The decision follows PAS accusing Bersatu of contesting against PN and expressing a willingness to cooperate with Pakatan Harapan (PH). PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang cited the Negeri Sembilan by-election and Bersatu's comments about potential collaboration with PH as reasons for the exclusion.

Bersatu Melaka's information chief Hishamuddin Abdul Karim stated the party is open to discussions with other parties, including PH, ahead of the Melaka state election, but insists that electoral cooperation should exclude parties that have betrayed the trust and spirit of PN.
