Asyraf Wajdi leads Umno delegation to Pas Muktamar
KOTA BARU: Umno secretary-general Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki and several party leaders arrived at the 72nd Pas Muktamar here this morning.
In a significant move, UMNO secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki attended PAS’ 72nd annual muktamar, marking only the second time an UMNO leader has done so since 2019. The event took place at the Islamic Tarbiah Centre of Kelantan (PUTIK), attended by UMNO Kelantan leadership. Asyraf Wajdi, representing UMNO president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, received a warm welcome from PAS leaders.
This renewed engagement between UMNO and PAS underscores efforts to strengthen Malay-Muslim political cooperation, particularly under the "Malay-Muslim unity" agenda. Despite the warm reception, political analysts note that the prospect of closer cooperation between the two parties remains under scrutiny. The attendance by Asyraf Wajdi follows reports that UMNO president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is expected to attend the 72nd PAS annual muktamar today.
