Muhyiddin: Pas decided to end political cooperation with Bersatu

Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced that the Islamic Party of Malaysia (Pas) decided to terminate its political cooperation with Bersatu. Muhyiddin stated that the decision had ended the collaboration within Perikatan Nasional (PN). He emphasized that this choice was made solely by Pas, led by Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang, and not by Bersatu.

Speaking at Bersatu's 10th anniversary celebration, Muhyiddin clarified that it was not Bersatu's decision to end the cooperation. On June 9, Pas officially ended its political cooperation with Bersatu immediately. The decision was made during a special meeting of Pas Central Working Committee after reviewing reports, studies, and assessments of the relationship between the two parties.

This meeting approved a decision from Pas Syura Ulama Council on June 2, which considered policy, religious, and public-interest matters in Pas's political cooperation based on the principle of Muslim unity.
