KUALA LUMPUR: Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) is bracing itself for an interesting albeit fiery annual general meeting tomorrow amidst growing criticism by its allies over its move to accept Umno defectors.

The three-day AGM, which will start with the meeting of its wings tomorrow, is also expected to see Bersatu trying to convince the Malays, who make up the majority of the country’s electorate, that the party is able to defend their interests.
