Asking Bersatu To Dissolve An Outdated Irrelevant Proposal Says Wan Saiful

---

 The Bersatu Supreme Council member says parties form coalitions and go on to form governments together.
Wan Saiful Wan Jan said dissolving and joining another might make sense for a small or insignificant party, but Bersatu is not small.PETALING JAYA: Bersatu Supreme Council member Wan Saiful Wan Jan has dismissed a proposal for the party to disband and reunite with Umno, describing it as outdated and irrelevant
He said the current political landscape is marked by various parties forming coalitions and working together to form governments.
“If it’s a small party, maybe it’s appropriate to consider dissolution. But this suggestion came from Umno veterans, so it reflects a mindset that should have long been retired,” he said in a Facebook post.
Wan Saiful said Malaysia is in a new political era, with multiple parties forming coalitions and working together to form governments.
“That’s the political reality today that may not be realised by those still stuck in the past,” he added.
He was responding to Umno Veterans Club secretary Mustapha Yaakub’s call for Bersatu to dissolve and rejoin Umno, likening the move to Semangat 46’s return to the party in the 1990s.
Mustapha’s remarks came after Bersatu deputy president Hamzah Zainudin said the party was open to working with Umno because of their shared ideological values.
Wan Saiful, the MP for Tasek Gelugor, also claimed that Umno no longer holds the upper hand in national politics and is surviving mainly through the support of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
“We must remember, if not for party hopping and the scramble for government funds, Bersatu would still have more MPs in Parliament than Umno,” he said. - FMT
