Bersatu bimbang mesyuarat MT PN mungkin langgar Akta Pertubuhan

The United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) warned that the upcoming meeting of the Majlis Tertinggi Perikatan Nasional (PN) Supreme Council could contravene the Companies Act. Azmin Ali, the Chief Secretary of Bersatu, expressed concern that the proceedings of the top PN council meeting scheduled for tonight might violate the Companies Act.

Although PN has sought a stay on the registration revocation of the Federal Registrar of Associations (JPPM), Azmin stressed that the postponement does not automatically restore the combined status. Bersatu argued that due to the pending appeal, all parties should maintain the status quo of the Registrar's decision until all judicial proceedings are concluded.

If PAS and its allies continue the PN Supreme Council meeting in the current situation, Bersatu fears that the meeting's proceedings and decisions could have serious legal implications. Bersatu pledged to bring this matter to legal counsel to ensure that PN's procedures under the PN constitution and the Companies Act are carried out lawfully and properly, according to a statement.

The top PN council is scheduled to convene at PAS headquarters in Kuala Lumpur tonight, among other matters, discussing the PRN Melaka on November 14. The registration freeze was imposed by JPPM in late September before being revoked on Tuesday, following Bersatu's appeal against PN leadership. The High Court subsequently adjourned the revocation of PN's registration for two days.

Bersatu urged PN to clarify its stance on the PN Supreme Council issue, as the organization's leadership failed to meet the required attendance quota for the last meeting of the top PN council in July. Bersatu is investigating and monitoring the developments and will consult with its legal team before taking any position.
