  "account": "PAS President Hadi Awang has asked PAS members not to worry about distributing seats for PRN Melaka, as they are considering the strength of Umno for potential cooperation with the Barisan Nasional (BN) in the state election. During a PAS Melaka Amal Makan Malam meeting, Hadi stated that PAS is taking a different approach compared to PRN in the past, depending on the strength of the involved parties. Addressing concerns about seat distribution, he urged PAS members not to doubt the decision-making process led by the party's leadership. He provided an example of PRN Johor, where PAS aided Umno and other National Justice Alliance (PN) parties in uncontested Perikatan Nasional (PN) seats, leading to BN's victory with 48 out of 56 contested seats. Hadi compared the arrangement to a football match, with PAS acting as the goalkeeper, allowing Umno to score while PAS did not. He concluded that while Umno won without PAS scoring, that is not a concern.",
