  "account": "Kota Bharu: Perikatan Nasional (PN) is set to convene a meeting soon to address various matters, one of which includes Bersatu's standing within the coalition, as stated by PN Secretary-General Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan. The gathering will be organized following the conclusion of the Pas Muktamar. Takiyuddin, while inspecting the preparations for the 72nd Pas Central Muktamar in Pengkalan Chepa, Kelantan, elaborated on the matter. He indicated that there is no justification for Bersatu to stay in PN if it does not wish to continue the partnership. Political reasons aside, Bersatu remains a part of PN due to the party's lack of intention to disassociate from the coalition. Contrary to their actions during the Negri Sembilan state election, where they contested using their own logo, Bersatu's attitude towards PN is evident. Furthermore, Takiyuddin noted that Bersatu is not a founding party and there is no logical reason for it to remain in PN. According to the PN Constitution, any member has the right to be suspended or expelled.",
