Malaysia's pulse on breaking news, politics and business.
Speculation about a potential electoral alliance between Barisan Nasional, PAS, and Parti Wawasan Negara in Johor has ended after BN announced its candidate slate without naming any senior Wawasan figures.
A Perikatan Nasional leader has firmly rejected Bersatu's objections to admitting Parti Wawasan Negara, the rebranded version of Parti Cinta Malaysia led by Hamzah Zainudin, signalling the coalition's determination to proceed.
Parti Wawasan Negara has unveiled its full central leadership structure, with Hamzah and former minister Rais Yatim at the helm, drawing on extensive political experience.
