JAYA: A Bersatu leader has hit out at former Barisan Nasional secretary-general Annuar Musa for accusing the Perikatan Nasional lynchpin of bearing a vengeance against BN.
Bersatu Supreme Council member Faiz Na’aman told Annuar it was Umno’s leadership that first declared his party and the PN coalition as the enemy, particularly at Umno general assemblies.
“So what vengeance is he talking about? Surely he can’t expect Bersatu to continue daydreaming about working with BN come GE15.
“It’s Umno itself that clearly wants to have revenge for their fall from power after being rejected by the people in the last general election,” he told FMT.
Faiz also pointed out that Umno had made PAS its enemy in Annuar’s home state of Kelantan.
He cited party veteran Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah’s recent “bipartisan” group with state Amanah leaders, aimed at booting PAS out of the Kelantan government in GE15.
“What action will Umno take against Ku Li (Tengku Razaleigh)? Where is their Muafakat Nasional?” he said, referring to the pact between Umno and PAS which was formalised in 2019.
Annuar, the communications and multimedia minister, recently said Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin’s willingness to work with “anyone” to take down BN reeked of vengeance and would cause the party to be rejected by voters.
He also accused the party of being Machiavellian (cunning) in going against BN, warning that it could lead to PN’s breakup.
PN consists of Bersatu, PAS, Gerakan, Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (STAR) and the Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP).
Faiz questioned Annuar’s change in tone towards Muhyiddin now, compared to when he was federal territories minister in the former prime minister’s Cabinet.
“When we were under Muhyiddin’s leadership, he was defensive over the PN government’s formation. Now, it’s as though he’s harming Umno and Bersatu’s ties even more,” he said.
