KUALA LUMPUR – The proposed formation of a Perikatan Nasional (PN) presidential council comprising component party chiefs of Perikatan Nasional and the call for Malay Muslim leaders to unite under a big coalition reflect Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s inclusive and open leadership, according to PN information chief Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali.
The International Trade and Industry Minister also said these moves were aimed at creating a strong and stable government which could give the best service possible to the people, especially when the country is focused on efforts to fight the Covid-19 pandemic and revive the economy.
“As stated by him (Prime Minister Muhyiddin) yesterday (during the 3rd Bersatu general assembly), he had met Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to see how BN and PN can place the interests of the country and people above those of groups and political parties.
“It is important for all political parties supportive of government policies to be grouped under a more organised and structured coalition to strengthen unity for the sake of the people and country,” he told reporters after attending a food distribution programme of the Gombak Food Bank here today. – Bernama, November 29, 2020
