 Segamat MP R Yuneswaran says PKR should avoid any action that can tarnish trust and stability within the unity government coalition.
Segamat MP R Yuneswaran said he feared Umno-PKR ties would be hampered if Tengku Zafrul Aziz was accepted as a PKR member.PETALING JAYA: An MP from PKR has urged his party to focus on maintaining a united coalition government, as former Umno man Tengku Zafrul Aziz seeks to join PKR
Segamat MP R Yuneswaran said he acknowledged Tengku Zafrul’s contributions to the nation and government, but warned that PKR’s ties with Umno could be hampered if the investment, trade and industry minister becomes a party member.
“It’s essential to consider the implications of the relationship between Umno and PKR. Currently, the focus should be on a unity government and establishing a united coalition, which is of utmost importance.
“Anything that can break the trust and stability (within the unity government), must be avoided,” he said in a post on X.
Tengku Zafrul resigned from Umno on Friday and said he intends to join PKR, citing “compatibility and suitability”.
However, many Umno leaders have warned PKR against accepting the senator as a member, with a Kedah leader also calling for a review of Barisan Nasional’s alliance with Pakatan Harapan if Tengku Zafrul successfully defects to PKR.
However, PKR Youth chief Kamil Munim supported accepting Tengku Zafrul, saying it would boost support for the party.
Earlier today, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim said no official discussion has been held on Tengku Zafrul’s application to join PKR, adding that his Cabinet would be unaffected. - FMT
