PN’s status under question amid claims of deregistration
This follows a viral notice by the RoS, which a Bersatu source claims is true.
The status of Perikatan Nasional (PN), a political coalition in Malaysia, is being questioned due to claims that it has been deregistered by the Registrar of Societies (RoS). This has led to uncertainty surrounding the future of PN as a political entity. On September 22, an official notice was purportedly sent by the RoS to PN chairman Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar, giving him 30 days to respond.
The notice also stated that PN would be suspended from its activities. Bersatu, one of the components of PN, claims that the notice is genuine and that other PN members have been notified as well. Bersatu intends to release a statement regarding the matter. The RoS has not yet commented on the issue. The dispute between Bersatu and PAS, two major components of PN, intensified after PAS assumed the presidency of PN in February.
PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang accused Bersatu of automatically ceasing to be a PN component after announcing plans for a new coalition, a claim denied by Bersatu.
