Muafakat Nasional (Muafakat) is expected to discuss Bersatu’s participation in the coalition in its steering committee meeting tonight, said Muafakat secretariat joint secretary, Annuar Musa.
“It (Bersatu’s participation in Muafakat) will probably be discussed because it was stated in the minutes of the previous meeting,” the Federal Territories minister told reporters after witnessing the public sanitation operation in Precinct 4 in Putrajaya today.
He said the meeting, which was slated to be held at the Putra World Trade Centre, would be attended by Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang.
Meanwhile, Annuar, who is also Umno supreme council member said Zahid and Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, who is also Bersatu president, always held discussions regarding political cooperation in Pakatan Nasional (PN).
“As far as I know, discussions between Umno and Bersatu are underway with the two presidents meeting each other frequently. Alhamdulillah, the spirit of negotiation is there,” he said when asked if Umno and Bersatu had reached a decision on political cooperation in PN.
On Oct 13, Umno secretary-general, Ahmad Maslan said the party was mulling the idea of withdrawing its support for PN and putting in black and white, as soon as possible, new terms to continue its political cooperation with the ruling coalition.
On rumours about a cabinet reshuffle, Annuar said: “It’s not a major concern...what matters most is to form unity and solidarity,” he said.
