Zahid expected to attend PAS muktamar tomorrow
The last time Umno leaders attended the PAS muktamar was in 2019, when it was held in Pahang.
Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is anticipated to attend PAS’s 72nd muktamar in Pengkalan Chepa near Kota Bharu, more than a decade after his last attendance. The Barisan Nasional chairman is expected to be accompanied by Umno secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki and other Umno leaders from state and divisional levels. Zahid's attendance has been confirmed by an anonymous Umno source.
The last time Umno leaders took part in the PAS muktamar was in 2019, during the Muafakat Nasional pact which ended after PAS joined hands with Bersatu to form Perikatan Nasional. PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan revealed that Umno's invitation to the muktamar this year is due to the party's perception of Umno as a strategic ally.
This follows the BN-PN alliance's significant win in the Negeri Sembilan election, with PAS currently leading the coalition.
