What's going on in the news today, with updates at 9am, 6pm, and 9pm.
MELAKA: The temporary suspension of Perikatan Nasional (PN) activities will not hinder political talks between Barisan Nasional (BN) and the coalition, according to Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh, Chief Minister and BN chairman. Rauf emphasized that BN would not make decisions based on the current developments involving PN, but would wait for official negotiations to determine the form of cooperation.
Although PN comprises several political parties, Rauf clarified that the individual parties within PN would still exist. BN's political talks would commence upon receiving a call from the BN leadership, with no fixed timeline but potentially occurring "in the (near) future." Yesterday, PN received an RoS notice to explain why its registration should not be cancelled, with several PN component parties instructed not to use the coalition's name and logo until a final decision is made.
