IPOH: Perikatan Nasional (PN) will not withdraw its support for the Federal Government even if the coalition clashes with Umno in the Melaka state election on Nov 20, said PN deputy chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu.
He said this is because PN is placing its full trust in the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

“It has not crossed our mind (to withdraw support) because we can see the government is striving to do its best through the Malaysian Family concept that has been launched.
“Everything is proceeding smoothly. InsyaAllah (God willing) we will continue (the cooperation) and we seek the help of Allah to make all things smooth,” said Ahmad Faizal, who is Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) deputy president, at a press conference after attending the Senamrobik Perdana Peja Trophy 2021 here today.
On Oct 22, Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi reiterated that the party would not work with Bersatu, which is a PN member, in the Melaka state election.
Ahmad Faizal, who is Youth and Sports Minister, said he has good ties with most Umno leaders especially those in the Cabinet and their relationship was not affected by political manoeuvrings.
