00:00The unity government is at risk of being destabilised following the pact between Dr Mahathir Mohamad

00:08and Perikatan Nasional to preserve Malay political power, according to an analyst.

00:13Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's government should

00:18pay close attention to this grouping as it could sow discord among the people and threaten

00:24national unity.

00:25He said the grouping could have a polarising effect between the Malays and non-Malays,

00:30with the non-Malays growing more wary of PN.

00:34On Thursday, Mahathir said he and PN leaders had agreed to come together to oppose a common

00:39enemy of the Malays to ensure the Malays do not lose power.

00:43He claimed that the Malays have been gradually deprived of their rights under Anwar's government,

00:49prompting them to unite to champion the community.

00:52Meanwhile, Shaza Shukri of the International Islamic University Malaysia said Anwar's government

00:57has nothing to be worried about as Mahathir's influence is declining.

01:02She pointed out that last year, Mahathir had hoped to capitalise on the green wave, but

01:07with its decline, Mahathir and PN are now portraying the unity government as evil in

01:12a classic populist move.
