[UPDATED] PN chairman: Does Bersatu still have its heart in PN?

Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar has expressed doubt about whether the Barisan Nasional (BN) partner, Bersatu, is still committed to the coalition following the recent Negri Sembilan state election. Samsuri questioned whether Bersatu maintains its "heart" in Perikatan Nasional during an interview with reporters ahead of an emergency PN supreme council meeting. He stated that the party had been invited to the meeting and it was ultimately up to Bersatu whether they attend.

Samsuri told reporters that the meeting could proceed as the PN had extended an invitation for Bersatu's participation. When asked about Bersatu's recent claim that the meeting could not be held, Samsuri simply replied, "Ah, that's their view." Earlier today, Bersatu's secretary-general, Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali, had cautioned that the meeting could potentially lead to serious legal ramifications, as the coalition's registration had been invalidated.
