00:01Former PKR Deputy President Rafizi Ramli says the real test of the loose coalition recently
00:06announced by Bersatu President Muhyiddin Yassin is whether it can win the next general election
00:11and form the government.
00:13The Pandan MP said the parties would have to agree on a prime ministerial candidate
00:17and cabinet members, as well as the distribution of positions and key appointments among themselves
00:22if they want enough seats at GE16.
00:25However, he said there was little ideological similarity holding the parties together.
00:55Rafizi said it was difficult to determine whether the coalition would succeed in rallying enough
01:01support to win GE16 as most of the parties, apart from PAS, Bersatu and Gerakan, lacked a significant
01:08presence at the national level.
01:10The coalition, made up of 11 opposition parties, will comprise Bersatu, PAS, Gerakan, Pejuang,
01:18Muda, the Malaysian Indian People's Party, Putra, Rajasa, Urimay, the Malaysian Advancement Party
01:25and the National Indian Muslim Alliance Party.
