REMBAU: Barisan Nasional (BN) has yet to hold talks on collaborating with Pakatan Harapan (PH) in the six state elections that must be held next year, says Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan.
The Barisan deputy chairman, who is also UMNO deputy president, said the parties involved need to hold discussions first before making any decision on collaborating.
"Let the parties involved hold talks because nothing has been discussed yet,” he told reporters after attending the Rembau Area Farmers’ Organisation meet-the-customers day here Thursday (Dec 15).
In 2023, state elections will be held in Selangor, Penang, Negri Sembilan, Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu.
Pakatan secretary-general Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail was quoted as saying on Wednesday (Dec 14) that the coalition has not decided yet if it will work with Barisan in the six state elections as it was now focused on strengthening the working relationship with Barisan in the unity government. - Bernama
