IPOH – Parti Bangsa Malaysia (PBM) will accept whatever decision that is made by Barisan Nasional (BN) on its application to join the coalition, said Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin.
Zuraida, who is slated to take over the PBM presidency, said the decision is expected to be known after the BN supreme council meeting this Monday.
“PBM has a high level of spirit because judging from experience, we can handle any eventuality,” she told reporters after opening the Perak PBM state office here today.
BN deputy chairman Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan had earlier said that the PBM application would have to be decided upon by the coalition’s supreme council and would require consensus from all its component parties.
Zuraida, who is plantation industries and commodities minister, also said PBM had candidates with a good record of public service ready to face the looming 15th general election.
According to her, the electorate would no longer be voting for elected representatives based on their party but would be looking at their capability and service records. – Bernama, August 13, 2022
