KOTA KINABALU: Former federal minister Datuk Mohd Salleh Tun Said Keruak’s touted entry into PKR is likely to be a liability to the party if it goes through, says political analyst Rahezzal Shah.

He said Salleh, who was defeated in his family’s home base of Kota Belud in the 14th General Election (GE14) in May last year, needs to rebuild himself and regain his credibility after his past association with former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
