00:00Past President Abdul Hadi Awang today played down any concerns, among other Perikatan Nasional
00:05components, about what might happen if the party takes over the reins of the opposition pact.
00:12Hadi said concerns shared by the leaders and members of PN components would be put to rest
00:17as soon as the new coalition chairman is appointed and its administrative issues are ironed out.
00:24He also acknowledged that his party and PN needed the support of both Muslims and non-Muslims
00:30in order to form the government on its own.
00:33Hadi was reportedly responding to Tasik Golugo MP1 Saiful Wanjan's claim that Gerakan and MIPP leaders
00:40were concerned that they would struggle to woo non-Muslim support with PAS at the head of the opposition coalition.
00:48The post of PN chairman has been vacant since former Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin relinquished
00:53the role on January 1, following a political upheaval in Perlis, which saw a change of
00:59parliamentary Bersa between PAS and Bersatu. Hadi subsequently said that PAS would take over
01:05the PN chairmanship, although the PN Supreme Council has yet to confirm this. Hanyujo, FMT.
