CSA not linked to Melaka polls pact with PH, says Bersatu
The party's president Muhyiddin Yassin says the agreement signed is also unrelated to the one being sought by the Selangor government with Bersatu.
The Kuala Lumpur-based Bersatu president, Muhyiddin Yassin, has clarified that the Confidence and Supply Agreement (CSA) signed with the federal government has no connection to a potential electoral pact with Pakatan Harapan (PH) for the upcoming Melaka elections. The CSA, which includes six Bersatu MPs and Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman, focuses on the prime minister's tenure limit, separation of certain roles, and equal allocation of constituency development funds.
Muhyiddin emphasized that the agreement is a separate issue from any potential PH-Bersatu electoral pact, stating, "That is a separate question. That has nothing to do with (the agreement) here." Despite the pushback from within PH, Muhyiddin affirmed that the CSA is expected to remain in force until Parliament is dissolved and could be terminated if either party fails to honor its commitments.
