00:00PAS, unlike its ally BERSATU, is not keen on peddling the narrative that the country
00:06will see a snap election before year-end, a party leader said.
00:11Speaking on condition of anonymity, the leader told FMT that PAS and BERSATU seem to be working
00:16independently with PAS yet to mobilize its election machinery, even as BERSATU appears
00:21to be preparing for nationwide polls.
00:24He added that no discussions have taken place between leaders of the two parties on the
00:28opposition coalition's prime ministerial candidate.
00:31Last week, BERSATU Secretary-General Azmin Ali revealed that BERSATU President Muhyiddin
00:37Yassin had instructed the party's election machinery to be activated in anticipation
00:42of a snap election being called later this year.
00:45According to Azmin, the encouraging development was discussed at a meeting between PAS President
00:50Abdul Hadi Awang and Muhyiddin on February 5th.
00:54Separately, a BERSATU leader, who also did not wish to be named, said only a handful
00:59of party leaders doubt that a snap election is on the horizon, but acknowledged that there
01:03was nothing to suggest one would be called any time soon.
01:07The source also revealed that not all leaders attended the meeting between Azmin, Hadi and
01:11Muhyiddin, emphasizing that all major policy decisions should be made at a meeting attended
01:16by the top leaders of every PM party.
