PETALING JAYA: The Perikatan Nasional extraordinary meeting scheduled for Thursday (Jan 29) has been cancelled, and all leaders of the coalition's component parties will instead meet at Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin's house.
A letter dated Tuesday (Jan 27), signed by PAS secretary general and Perikatan deputy secretary general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan, was sent to all the members of the coalition Supreme Council stating that the meeting has been called off.
"I refer to the letter from Muhyiddin as Bersatu president, dated Jan 27, 2026, addressed to the Presidents of PAS, Gerakan, and MIPP, a copy of which was forwarded to me.
"In line with (Muhyiddin’s) invitation to the presidents of all Perikatan member parties to attend the pre-council meeting on 29 January 2026 at 8.30pm at (his) residence, I hereby cancel the Notice of the Extraordinary Meeting of the Perikatan Supreme Council scheduled for the same date and time," wrote Takiyuddin in the letter.
On Monday, Takiyuddin announced that Perikatan would hold an emergency supreme council meeting on Jan 29 at the Gerakan headquarters in Cheras at 8.30pm.
He said the meeting will have three agenda items: First, to appoint a meeting chairman from among Perikatan’s deputy chairmen; second, to approve Muhyiddin’s resignation in accordance with the coalition’s constitution; and third, upon approval, to appoint a new Perikatan chairman.
“I invite all 16 supreme council members to attend this emergency meeting,” he said.
However, Takiyuddin said invitations were not extended to individuals who had already resigned.
“When Muhyiddin’s resignation took effect on Jan 1, he became functus officio," he added.
