  "account": "Recently, Amanah's President Faiz Fadzil claimed Pakatan Harapan (PH) needs to broaden the concept of \"big tent\" by seeking new political allies if Umno opts to strengthen cooperation with Perikatan Nasional (PN). PETALING JAYA: Any effort by PH to expand the \"big tent\" concept ahead of the 16th General Election (PRU16) must be based on principles and agenda coherence, not merely power sharing, said its Chairwoman Aiman Athirah Sabu. Aiman Athirah Sabu. She emphasized PH is always open to working with any party that shares fundamental principles in building a better, clean, religious, and equitable nation. According to her, any cooperation should take into account the people's interests and commitment to strengthening democracy, economy, charity, and nation administration. \"For me, politics is not just about who is together with whom, but more importantly, which values are championed together and what benefits it brings to the nation and people,\" she told FMT. She commented on Amanah Deputy Chief Amanah Faiz Fadzil's statement that PH needs to broaden the \"big tent\" concept by seeking new political allies if Umno chooses to cooperate with Perikatan Nasional (PN). Aiman, who is also the Chairwoman of Amanah, said the \"big tent\" concept should not be viewed as a threat to anyone or a sign that PH disapproves of the cooperation being built within the Federal Government. Instead, she said it reflects the ever-changing political landscape and the need for every coalition to prepare for various possibilities. \"If there are changes in the political landscape ahead of PRU16, PH will evaluate all forms of cooperation based on principles, agenda alignment, and people's interests, not just power sharing,\" she said. Meanwhile, Pasir Gudang MP Hassan Abdul Karim said Faiz's proposal has merit as PH should not rely on a single cooperation option in preparing for PRU16. Hassan Karim. \"It's unwise in the real world if PH only has one possible partner for cooperation ahead of PRU16,\" he said. Hassan said PH Leader Anwar Ibrahim was right to continue efforts to seek cooperation with Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN), but PH also needs a Plan B or second option if that effort fails. \"If PH's cooperative option with Umno-BN fails to work out, then Plan B or second option needs to be mobilized and PH leadership should start now,\" he said. However, Hassan said PH needs to set ground rules before opening the door to other parties joining the \"big tent\". \"PH needs 'ground rules' in inviting political parties into the 'big tent',\" he said. \"Only progressive parties, advocating for democracy and equality for all citizens and having a credible track record, should be invited.\"",
