Mukhriz: Absence not because we didn't do homework



Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia has denied suggestions that it was absent from seat allocation talks with Pakatan Harapan yesterday because it did not perform the necessary preparations.
Bersatu deputy president Mukhriz Mahathir said his party was of the opinion that the top leadership of all parties should first outline the "basic principles" of negotiations before the joint technical committee meeting that took place yesterday.
"It would be easier for us to sit down and discuss (seat allocations) after the meeting (of the top leaders).
"This basic principles are not something to be discussed at the deputy president and secretary-general level.
"When the top level has not decided on this, how can we at the bottom level discuss about seat negotiations? It would be academic," Mukhriz added.
The joint technical committee meeting was held yesterday, involving PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution, DAP national organising secretary Anthony Loke and Parti Amanah Negara elections director Dr Hatta Ramli.
Saifuddin said Mukhriz and Bersatu secretary-general Abdul Rashid Abdul Rahman were scheduled to attend the meeting.
He claimed they did not turn up because Bersatu had "yet to do its homework" and perform the research required.

Bersatu had requested a meeting with Harapan leaders to discuss the "basic principles" involved with seat talks and the Harapan secretariat is making the necessary arrangements, Mukhriz said.
He also dismissed the speculation that Bersatu was reluctant to participate in seat talks with Harapan while waiting for PAS to join the opposition bloc.
PAS leaders have repeatedly said that they are firm about not forging any electoral pact with any party allied with DAP and Amanah.- Mkini
