00:00Former UMNO leader Puad Zarkashi has accused Barisan Nasional of staying in the unity government
00:06so it can continue backstabbing its partners.
00:10In a Facebook post, Puad rejected UMNO Supreme Council member Ahmad Maslan's claim
00:15that BN remained in government for political stability.
00:19He questioned why BN partnered with Perikatan Nasional in the Johor and Nicarisambilan polls
00:24if stability was truly the priority.
00:28Puad argued that attacks on the federal government during those campaigns
00:31showed the warmth between BN and Pakatan Harapan leaders was merely a Hollywood act.
00:37He warned that BN would continue to backstab its partners in the Malacca state election
00:42and later in GE16.
00:44Puad claimed BN was reluctant to leave the government because losing power would make it harder to
00:49effectively backstab its partners.
00:52Ahmed had defended BN's state-level PACs with PN as tactical moves to maximize its election chances
00:59rather than acts of betrayal.
01:01He also stressed that BN and PH's unity government agreement applies only at the federal level
01:07and does not bind state-level arrangements.
