GE15: Progress in Harapan-Muda talks, says Anwar

The talks between Pakatan Harapan and Muda regarding cooperating in the 15th general election (GE15) are progressing, said Harapan chairperson Anwar Ibrahim.

Anwar, who is also PKR president, said media reports that went viral yesterday claiming Harapan had rejected Muda were not true.

“Not true… (rejected Muda), we are still negotiating and there is progress,” he said briefly to reporters after the PKR central leadership council (MPP) special meeting at the PKR headquarters in Petaling Jaya last night.

PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli, vice-president Aminuddin Harun, Women’s wing chief Fadhlina Sidek, Youth chief Adam Adli as well as MPP members attended the meeting, which began at 9.40pm and was chaired by Anwar.

Meanwhile, PKR Communications director Ahmad Fahmi Fadzil expects a final decision on the cooperation between Harapan and Muda to be reached as early as tomorrow.

According to him, the meeting, which was held following the dissolution of Parliament as announced by Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob yesterday, among others discussed the preparation of the PKR election machinery as well as the party’s desire to contest more parliamentary seats in GE15.

He said that following the Parliament’s dissolution and the GE15 to be held in the near future, several Harapan agendas, including the Harapan convention scheduled for the end of October, may be brought forward or postponed.
