COMMENT | MIC is facing a critical juncture in its political journey, as discussions surrounding a potential shift from BN to Perikatan Nasional intensify.

The idea of joining PN, a relatively new coalition, may seem appealing to some, but the long-term consequences for MIC and its grassroots supporters could be dire.

While the allure of short-term gains is tempting, MIC must resist the temptation to leave behind its historical alliance with BN, especially considering the implications of aligning with a coalition that is not only uncertain but also increasingly influenced by the conservative elements of PAS.
