KUALA LUMPUR: There will be no Umno-PAS merger, said Umno secretary-general Tan Sri Annuar MusaHe said the proposal made by party president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to PAS had been misinterpreted and had caused some confusion. "It was not meant to be a merger but a cooperation. He said that the party president must refer to the party's supreme council and discuss the merger with all Barisan Nasional component parties before a decision can be made. Asked if there was discussion with the party's supreme council on the matter, Annuar said such a matter does not arise as it had been discussed before. There has been a falling out due to certain reasons, but there could be a possibility of a merger," he said.
