PUTRAJAYA: Gerakan Tanah Air (GTA) has a Plan B ready if its application is rejected by the Registrar of Societies (ROS), says its protem chairman Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.The coalition would be submitting its registration application to ROS by next week, he added.
“GTA is still in the process of selecting a suitable logo to complete the registration process,” said Dr Mahathir, who is also the Parti Pejuang Tanah Air (Pejuang) chairman, reported Bernama.
“If ROS rejects the application, GTA has a Plan B. We will use one logo, one flag and we will introduce and promote our flag and symbol,” he said after chairing the GTA presidential meeting here yesterday.
On Aug 4, Dr Mahathir announced the setting up of GTA to strengthen the Malays especially in the economic sector field.
The coalition comprises Pejuang, Parti Perikatan India Muslim Nasional, Parti Barisan Jemaah Islamiah Se-Malaysia and Parti Bumiputera Perkasa Malaysia, and open to participation from NGOs, individuals, academics and professional groups among the Malays.
Dr Mahathir also expressed hope that the registration process would run smoothly so that GTA could field its candidates to contest 120 parliamentary seats in the peninsula, especially in the Malay-majority areas.
