00:00A former Principal Private Secretary to Muhyiddin Yassin has urged the Perkataan national leadership
00:06to accept the Bersatu president's decision to resign as chairman of the coalition.
00:11In a Facebook post, Marzouki Mohammad said persistent demands for Muhyiddin to step down
00:16were the catalyst but that he made the rational choice for himself.
00:21He said that while some parties wanted Muhyiddin to continue leading PN and were entitled to
00:25that view, resigning was also Muhyiddin's right and should be respected.
00:30He also said he was puzzled as to why under the PN constitution, a chairman's resignation
00:35must be approved by the coalition's Supreme Council.
00:39On Saturday, FMT reported that growing unease over the potential rise of past Vice President
00:45Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar as PN chairman had sparked talk of an unexpected return by Muhyiddin.
00:51A PN insider said certain Bersatu leaders were reportedly uncomfortable with the idea
00:56of a party vice president helming the opposition coalition, arguing that PN should be led by
01:01a party president, a convention observed by both Bersa National and Pakatan Harapan.
01:07The source who wished to remain anonymous said this concern might see Bersatu push for its
01:12president Muhyiddin to reclaim the post.
