The Registrar of Societies (RoS) has suspended activities of the opposition coalition Perikatan Nasional (PN) and issued a show-cause notice over a complaint from Bersatu, a component party of PN. The regulatory department confirmed the notice was issued on September 22 under Subsection 13(2) of the Societies Act 1966, giving PN a 30-day period to respond.
The RoS clarified that this is not a final deregistration order but a protective measure to safeguard the coalition's interests while it resolves an alleged breach of its party constitution. PN has confirmed receiving the notice and stated that they reject the legal basis of the decision, with PN secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan preparing immediate legal challenges in court to protect the coalition's registration.
