00:00UMNO Supreme Council Member Tengku Zafrul Aziz has acknowledged having discussions with
00:07PKR to join the party, but says he has yet to decide on the matter.
00:12In a statement, he said the discussions did not centre on positions at state level or
00:16by elections.
00:18His statement follows speculation that his move to PKR would result in him becoming Menteri
00:23Besar of Selangor.
00:25Tengku Zafrul expressed surprise at statements from UMNO leaders about his position, but
00:30stood by the right of a person to choose a path of political struggle.
00:35He said that without compatibility, it is impossible for an individual to provide the
00:39best service to the people.

00:47ahead of party loyalty.
00:49Zahid also said Tengku Zafrul had not informed him of any plans to leave the party.
00:55Tengku Zafrul said he had not received any call from the UMNO leadership to ask about
00:59the real issue, adding that he would officially inform the party leadership of any decision
01:05he makes.
