PN will not sign CSA, says Takiyuddin

Perikatan Nasional (PN) has stated it will not sign a Confidence and Supply Agreement (CSA) to secure seat allocations, according to its secretary-general, Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan. The agreement, initiated by Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, has sidelined PN as a coalition and opposition bloc, according to Takiyuddin.

He emphasized that the CSA is an individual decision made by the MPs involved and does not represent PN's official stance. Those involved include members from Bersatu, former Bersatu members, and the Malaysian United Democratic Alliance (Muda). Takiyuddin clarified that PN was not part of the negotiations or signing of the CSA. Last week, six Bersatu MPs signed the agreement, seeking two major institutional reforms in exchange for their support: limiting the prime minister's tenure and separating the roles of the Attorney-General and Public Prosecutor.

In return, they agreed to support the 2027 Budget and receive development allocations equivalent to those provided to government MPs. Takiyuddin also pointed out that Bersatu's use of its logo in the Melaka election is unauthorized as the PN constitution requires member parties to obtain PN's consent before using their respective logos.
