Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) chairperson Dr Mahathir Mohamad has rubbished PAS’ proposal for Bersatu as well as PKR to join the third bloc with the Islamist party.

“The arithmetic is not right. If we just go with PAS, then they (DAP and Parti Amanah Negara) will be our opposition.

“Then we have to fight them in three-cornered fights, we will split the votes (and) Barisan Nasional will win,” said Mahathir in a press conference after the Save Malaysia round table discussion held in Bandar Utama today.
