Supporters of deputy president Hamzah Zainudin were reported to be absent at the gathering as the Bersatu leadership feud intensifies.
Among those seen arriving at the house in Bukit Damansara were secretary-general Azmin Ali and vice-president Ahmad Faizal Azumu, better known as Peja.
Another vice-president, Radzi Jidin, who posted photos of the gathering on Facebook, described it as a reception to celebrate the coming of Ramadan.
Bersatu sources told FMT that those at the gathering included more than 20 assemblymen from various states, four MPs as well as several Supreme Council members. However, those aligned to deputy president Hamzah Zainudin did not turn up.
Those present were believed to include three MPs from Kedah, and one from Sarawak; and state assembly members from Selangor (6), Perlis (5), Kedah (2), Perak (3), Negeri Sembilan (2), Pahang (2), and one each from Kelantan, Terengganu, Penang, and Johor.
The agenda for the meeting was not disclosed; however, it comes amid an intensifying leadership feud within the party, with growing calls for Muhyiddin to step down as party president, followed by counter-calls for Hamzah to resign instead.
Tonight’s meeting also comes on the heels of news that Hamzah had been summoned to appear before the party’s disciplinary board over complaints alleging attempts to sabotage the party’s 2025 annual general assembly and undermine its leadership.
Yesterday, it was reported that at least six other party leaders, including division chiefs and from Sabah Bersatu, were also called to the disciplinary board on Feb 12 over separate 2025 incidents. - FMT
