00:00 Amno should withdraw its support for the Unity Government.

00:08 This is what several Amno division leaders had to say during a special closed-door meeting

00:12 with party president Ahmad Zaid Hamidi on Sunday.

00:17 Speaking on condition of anonymity, one division leader said several of them supported the

00:22 call after former Prime Minister Najib Razak failed to get a full pardon for his conviction

00:27 in the SRC International case.

00:30 However the leader acknowledged that leaving the Unity Government would be risky for the

00:34 party.

00:35 This, he said, is because Amno is currently not in good shape and would lose both strength

00:41 and bargaining power if it withdrew from Putrajaya.

00:45 Another division leader also said there is tension within the party, especially among

00:49 those in Najib's camp.

00:52 He said most of them initially agreed to work with Pakatan Harapan in hopes that Najib would

00:56 be pardoned, similar to how Anwar Ibrahim was pardoned after PH won the 2018 general

01:02 election.
