Gesaan Puad bubar DUN pandangan pihak luar, kata pemimpin Umno

A Pahang Umno leader expressed concerns over former party leader Puad Zarkashi's proposal to dissolve Perak and Pahang Dewan Ultras (DUNs) to pave the way for the new Peoples' Righteous Nation (PRN). This view was shared by a member of Pahang's Umno General Secretary (exco), who suggested that decisions should come from the respective state leaders who better understand their state's situation, including its stability.

He emphasized that anyone can provide a viewpoint, unlike those commenting from outside the respective DUNs.

Speaking to FMT, the Kerdau MP clarified that determining when the time is right for dissolution is up to the respective state leadership after receiving approval from the king, rather than being decided by external observers. On the same day, Puad proposed dissolving the DUNs in Perak and Pahang to allow the new PRN to be established in both states under the Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Harapan (PH) alliance.

He noted that the successful collaboration between BN and PN in the recent PRN Melaka election, where they secured 24 out of 28 seats while PH won 4, demonstrated the effectiveness of their partnership.

Meanwhile, Umno's Chief Secretary for the Regions, Azhar Ahmad, suggested that the Parliament should also be dissolved to enable simultaneous PRU and PRN elections, which would give the people the opportunity to determine a more stable government. He stated that the people ultimately decide what is stable and what is not, and emphasized the significance of the Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's decision to dissolve Parliament in the context of choosing between stability and instability.
