PETALING JAYA: Hours after announcing that he had registered a "party" with the Registrar of Societies (ROS) named Muafakat Nasional (MN) back in 2019, Tan Sri Annuar Musa has clarified that it was actually a non-governmental organisation (NGO).
"Muafakat Nasional is not a political party for now. It is an NGO that has been officially registered.

Annuar had made the announcement - that he had registered Muafakat with the Registrar of Societies (ROS) on Sept 19, 2019 - after he was dropped from the Barisan Nasional list of candidates for GE15.
