---

PAS deputy president Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said that Perikatan Nasional (PN) is yet to decide on its prime minister candidate, but Bersatu, a member party of the PN announced that it is backing former premier Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin as prime minister for the 16th General Election (GE16).
(Focus Malaysia) – The senior PAS leader said the issue of selecting a prime minister candidate for the coalition for the GE16 has yet to be discussed
“Whether to maintain PN chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin as the prime minister candidate is yet to be discussed,” he reportedly told Sinar Harian.
Yesterday (May 10), also said PN information chief Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali insisted the coalition has never discussed a candidate for prime minister other than retaining its chairman Muhyiddin in the upcoming 16th General Election (GE16), according to Sinar Harian.
Azmin added that the coalition did not budge on the position because it was convinced that the leadership of the Pagoh MP was the best for the people.
But the PAS deputy leader said the issue of a PN candidate did not arise as the GE16 is yet to come.
“For now, we focus on our agenda to strengthen PN and the Kuala Kubu Bharu by-election,” he said.
He also pointed out there was no need to stir up controversies over issues that were yet to be decided.
“All parties must have a prime minister candidate but PN will only make the decision when the time comes.”
He said that previously, PN had agreed to the appointment of former premier Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob from UMNO for the country’s interest at the time.
