Malaysia's voice on the news, politics and issues that matter.
PAS leaders converged at the party's Kuala Lumpur headquarters for an opposition MPs pre-council meeting, signalling intensified strategic discussions as friction with Bersatu continues to strain the broader opposition coalition.
PAS has signalled growing concern about the proliferation of new political parties attempting to secure young voter support in the run-up to Malaysia's next general election, flagging the trend as a significant strategic challenge.
A political analyst cautions that PAS may suffer electoral consequences among moderate voters should the party pursue efforts to expel Bersatu from the Perikatan Nasional coalition.
