‘Hidden hands’ behind RoS action against PN, claims Wawasan
Wawasan says the timing of the action raises questions over whether political considerations are behind PN’s suspension.
Wawasan has suggested that there may be "hidden hands" behind the Registrar of Societies' (RoS) suspension of Perikatan Nasional (PN), citing the timing of the decision and the upcoming Melaka state election. The party claims PN received two notices from the RoS: one requesting an explanation as to why its registration should not be cancelled, and the other ordering the coalition to suspend its activities.
Wawasan believes this move was politically motivated and intended to prevent PN from contesting the Melaka state election. The Registrar of Societies has stated that the suspension was intended to allow the coalition to respond to a complaint lodged by Bersatu. However, Pejuang, a coalition partner, has demanded that the RoS provide a clear explanation for the suspension, questioning the use of its powers against an opposition coalition.
The party is calling for Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail to state publicly whether he or anyone in government directed or influenced the RoS's action against PN.
