Bersatu tanding PRN Melaka guna logo sendiri, terbuka jalin kerjasama

Bersatu presidential candidate Muhyiddin Yasin convened a political party office meeting that adjourned in the evening. The meeting was attended by Azmin Ali, Bersatu's Chief Secretary, who stated that Bersatu will participate in the Perikatan Nasional (PN) using its own logo. The party is also exploring and finalizing the form of cooperation for the upcoming election. This decision was made during the evening meeting chaired by Muhyiddin Yasin.

The aim of establishing a raya cooperation in the PN Melaka is to optimize potential and ensure stable and progressive government administration for the welfare of the people. Bersatu appeals to the people of Melaka to give an opportunity to Bersatu candidates to represent the people's voice and bring genuine change, providing direct benefits to all, according to a statement.

Bersatu was left out of PN after PAS ended its political cooperation with the party in June. PAS led PN to form an alliance with Barisan Nasional in the PRN Negeri Sembilan on August 1, which resulted in the coalition winning two-thirds of the seats. Bersatu contested as a solo party and failed to win any seats, as all 24 candidates lost heavily.

Previously, there were speculations that Bersatu would join Pakatan Harapan (PH) after several PH leadership figures from Melaka were seen attending a dinner meeting last month. Bersatu was once a component of PH and played a significant role in the United Opposition government's downfall in February 2020 when Muhyiddin took over as the prime minister.
