PUTRAJAYA: Barisan Nasional is keen on maintaining the current political setup as long as it ensures national stability, says its chairman Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

To him, political stability is important to ensure continuous economic growth, the Deputy Prime Minister and Umno president said this in responding to a recent call by Pakatan Harapan to allow Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to continue as the Prime Minister for a second term.
