A Bersatu leader spurned Mukhriz application to join PN - aiyoh, loses mucho 'water face' liao lah, wakakaka


FMT:

Don’t accept Pejuang, Bersatu leader tells PN


Faiz Na’aman says the party’s application to join the coalition is a ‘desperate, opportunistic and unprincipled’ move to maintain its political clout.

PETALING JAYA: A Bersatu leader has protested against Pejuang’s application to join Perikatan Nasional (PN), training his guns on Pejuang president Mukhriz Mahathir.

Bersatu Supreme Council member Faiz Na’aman said he personally objected to Pejuang joining PN as it was a “desperate, opportunistic and unprincipled” move to maintain the party’s political clout after its dismal performance in the recent general election (GE15).

All of Pejuang’s candidates, including Mukhriz and its former chairman, Dr Mahathir Mohamad, lost their deposits in GE15.

In a Facebook post, Faiz said he had messaged Mukhriz before GE15 about Pejuang forming an alliance with PN to face Barisan Nasional and Pakatan Harapan.

However, he said, Mukhriz’s response infuriated him as the former Kedah menteri besar replied: “Only now you’re thinking about your ego”.

Faiz had also attached a screenshot of his conversation with Mukhriz in his posting.

Earlier today, Mukhriz said Pejuang’s central executive council had decided that the party should apply to join the Muhyiddin Yassin-led coalition.

He said the council decided that it was not sufficient for Pejuang to only form an electoral pact with other parties or coalitions to avoid seat clashes.

Meanwhile, Bersatu deputy president Ahmad Faizal Azumu said he has yet to receive any information about Pejuang’s application.

“However, the matter will certainly be discussed with the other component parties before a decision is made,” he told FMT.
