00:00Perikata Nacional Secretary-General Azmin Ali has confirmed that the coalition has held some form
00:05of informal discussions with MCA and MIC, both of which are components of the ruling Barça Nacional.
00:11Azmin said both MCA and MIC acknowledged that the policies introduced by the former PN government,
00:17led by Muhyiddin Yassin, were fair and represented all Malaysians, Sinar Haryan reported.
00:22When asked whether these discussions could lead to the parties joining PN,
00:26Azmin said it was too early to arrive at that conclusion.
00:29However, he said that it is a good start when two groups are willing to sit down and talk.
00:34The Bersatu Secretary-General added that PN is also holding talks with all parties that are ready
00:39to work together in uniting coalitions that place the people's interests above partisan or personal
00:44concerns. Azmin added that MCA and MIC's experience in government could help Bersatu and PN shape more
00:51progressive policies as Malaysia continues to face economic headwinds.
00:55In June, MCA President Wee Ka-Seong said the party's 191 divisions would discuss its future amid
01:02discontent over its lack of influence in the government and bring their proposals to the
01:06annual general meeting in October. MIC also said it was prepared to engage in discussions with any
01:12political party to ensure its survival and better serve the Indian community.
