PAS pulls election machinery out of seats contested by Bersatu
PAS has redirected its election machinery in Johor away from seats contested by its coalition partner, Bersatu, to focus on its own candidates. This move follows a decision by Bersatu to contest under the Perikatan Nasional banner, leading to independent operations by coalition members.
