PAS should be grateful to Umno for helping it get into Perikatan govt, says Ahmad Zahid


KUALA LUMPUR: PAS should be the one grateful to Umno for having brought it into the then Perikatan Nasional government in 2020, not the other way around, says Umno President Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

The Deputy Prime Minister said that this was because, in 2020, Umno had led Barisan Nasional with 68 parliamentary seats to form the then Perikatan government under Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, when PAS had only 18 MPs.
