Hadi to attend Umno general assembly next week, says Asyraf
This follows the attendance by an Umno delegation at the opening of PAS’s 72nd muktamar in Kota Bharu today, led by party secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki.
PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang is set to attend the Umno annual general assembly next week, according to Umno secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki. Hadi previously attended the event in 2019 after PAS and Umno formed their political cooperation under Muafakat Nasional. Asyraf expressed hopes for continued unity and cooperation between the two largest Malay-Muslim parties in the country, emphasizing the importance of sincerity and trust.
Asyraf led an Umno delegation at the opening of PAS’s 72nd muktamar in Kota Bharu today, replacing Barisan Nasional chairman Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who could not attend due to "unavoidable reasons". Umno leaders last attended PAS’s annual meeting in 2019 when the two parties were allies in the Muafakat Nasional. PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan previously stated that Umno leaders were invited as the party saw Umno as a strategic partner.
This follows the Barisan Nasional-Pernasional (PN) alliance's victory in the recent Negeri Sembilan election. PAS currently chairs the PN alliance.
