Bersatu officially invited to join Muafakat Nasional

KUALA LUMPUR: Muafakat Nasional has officially extended an invitation to Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) to join the alliance, said its secretariat co-secretary Tan Sri Annuar Musa.

He said Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, Pas president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang and Prime Minister (Bersatu president) Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin discussed the matter months ago.

"We have... extended our invitation officially... [E]ach party, I'm sure, has certain procedures (on the matter) which they have to bring to their respective supreme councils and discuss," Annuar, who is also Federal Territories Minister and Barisan Nasional secretary-general, said.

Muafakat Nasional is a political alliance comprising Barisan Nasional and Pas.

"We just wait for their decision. What is important (is that) between Bersatu, Umno, and Pas, we must maintain harmonious engagement and working relationships," he told reporters after visiting Taman Awam Bukit Kiara here, yesterday.

He said a concrete solution will be achieved soon before Muafakat Nasional's first anniversary on Sept 14. - Bernama
