  "account": "KOTA BARU: Pas is prepared to give clarification to the Registrar of Societies (RoS) if the regulator requests more details regarding a complaint linked to the Perikatan Nasional (PN) crisis, according to its secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan. The regulator has the discretion to determine if additional measures are required following a complaint. Takiyuddin, who also serves as PN secretary-general, stated that Pas is currently unaware of the specific nature of the complaint raised by Bersatu's information chief, Datuk Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz. Further information on the complaint has not been made available at this point. Regarding collaboration within PN, Takiyuddin emphasized that component parties should utilize the coalition for the advantage of all its members. He clarified that Pas has never barred Bersatu from utilizing the PN logo, but the party opted to contest an election independently. Pas cannot compel them, and they have chosen not to accept the logo, which is their decision. Earlier, Tun Faisal called for the RoS to step in and address the ongoing PN crisis, claiming that Pas had made unilateral decisions that violated the rights of other component parties and breached the PN Constitution. On Friday, PN chairman Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang asserted that Bersatu had automatically lost its membership in PN following its announcement to form a new coalition. However, Bersatu's secretary-general, Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali, disagreed, stating that there is no provision in the PN Constitution that automatically terminates a component party's membership.",
