Let people judge those who refuse to cooperate with Bersatu - Azmin

 

Azmin Ali wants the people to form their own judgment on those who rejected any form of cooperation with Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) in the Malaca state election on Nov 20.

Azmin, who is a member of Bersatu Supreme Council and Perikatan Nasional (PN) election director, said the coalition initiated the cooperation for the sake of the people and the interests of the state.

"That is their choice (refusing to negotiate with Bersatu). Let the people make their own judgment on the attitude and statements of those who refuse to cooperate," he said when met at the Gombak parliamentary constituency’s Deepavali 2021 get-together last night.

Several Umno divisions in Malacca yesterday ruled out any form of cooperation between Umno and Bersatu in the forthcoming state election.

Tangga Batu Umno division chief Mohamad Ali Mohamad, who represented the group, said the decision was made to respect the wishes of the grassroots, in addition to other factors that made the cooperation impossible.

Azmin, who is also PN's information chief, said the coalition is always ready to negotiate cooperation, especially with the parties that formed the federal government.

Azmin: Time is not on our side

However, he stressed that time was not on their side, thus preparations must be made at the grassroots level, especially involving seat distribution, candidates and the election machinery.

"This matter needs to be streamlined as soon as possible so that our machinery can act more effectively and efficiently and our actions do not cause the people to be confused about the direction, future of the country and the state," Azmin said.

He said the cooperation formed last year through the PN coalition had resulted in many successes for the country in the face of health and economic crises, adding that the cooperation should be continued in the Malacca state election.

The EC set has the nomination date for the Malacca state election on Nov 8, followed by early voting on Nov 16 and polling date on Nov 20.

The election is being held following the dissolution of the Malacca State Legislative Assembly on Oct 4, when four assemblypersons withdrew their support for then chief minister Sulaiman Md Ali.
