MARANG, Jan 2 — PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang has confirmed the party will helm Perikatan Nasional (PN) after Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s resignation as bloc chair.
He said a meeting to discuss a PN chairman candidate would be held next week, to be attended by Bersatu leaders as well.
“That meeting will involve Bersatu. The one who resigned, that is up to him, whether he wants to attend (the meeting) or not,” he told reporters after delivering a lecture at Masjid Rusila here today.
Hadi said PAS has many potential candidates, be they religious scholars or technocrats, and remained tight-lipped on who would be nominated.
Asked about the possibility of him leading PN, as suggested by some quarters, the Marang MP said his health is poor.
