PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) will not accept Opposition leaders who wish to join the party with the intention to break up the Pakatan Harapan coalition, the party's deputy president Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir (pic) said. The chairman of the committee set up to examine and filter membership applications of former Umno leaders stressed that Pakatan was a strong coalition which would continue to lead the government. Mukhriz also pointed out that although Bersatu welcomed these former leaders, it did not mean Bersatu was a small party with no power, requiring outside help to shore up its strength. Mukhriz said he was confident system would not be misused or manipulated by any party. He said Bersatu leaders at the division level also did not have to worry about their posts, if they did their jobs well and managed to win the hearts of fellow party members.
