00:00Pakatan Harapan Chairman Anwar Ibrahim maintains that there were elements of betrayal in Negeri Sembilan,
00:07despite his Barisan national counterpart Ahmad Zahid Hamidi rejecting such claims.
00:13Anwar said there were some efforts to destabilize Menteri Besar Aminuddin Harun's otherwise stable administration.
00:20The Prime Minister said he had previously stated that for the PHBN cooperation to succeed in the country,
00:27there should be no acts of betrayal.
00:30He said that while there may have been no betrayal in some cases,
00:33experience in Negeri Sembilan showed attempts to bring down the government
00:37despite the state's political and economic stability.
00:41Yesterday, Zahid denied that UMNO had betrayed PH in Negeri Sembilan
00:45since the party eventually ordered its 14 assemblymen to continue backing Aminuddin's administration
00:51despite initially retracting their support.
00:54The UMNO president said his party had agreed to back Aminuddin until the end of his term
00:59but it was the Menteri Besar's right to seek the state assembly's dissolution
01:02and call for fresh polls.
