Political cooperation between Perikatan Nasional (PN) and Barisan Nasional (BN) is on the agenda for the upcoming PAS Annual Muktamar, scheduled for September 4-5 in Kelantan. The event is expected to feature discussions on the "unification of the ummah" and political alliances.
PN Secretary-General Takiyuddin Hassan indicated that while negotiations for cooperation have commenced, they are still in the discussion phase and have not reached a final agreement. He described the ongoing talks as "very positive" but noted that specific details of the potential collaboration are still being worked out.
The PAS Muktamar, in its 72nd year, will take place at the Pusat Tarbiyah Islam Kelantan (PUTIK) in Pengkalan Chepa. The party's annual gathering is a significant event for setting its political direction and strategy for the coming period.
