Wawasan president Hamzah Zainudin defended Takiyuddin Hassan’s handling of complaints from Bersatu, saying the PN secretary-general had never violated the coalition's constitution.PETALING JAYA: Perikatan Nasional (PN) components that hold independent political negotiations instead of consulting the coalition’s leadership should just leave PN, says opposition leader Hamzah Zainudin.

At a press conference in Kelantan, the Wawasan president said coalition members must work as a team and follow the leadership’s direction, rather than conduct their own negotiations.

“Some people claim to be part of the team but, at the same time, want to undermine it. They are like enemies within our own ranks,” he said in a thinly-veiled dig at his former party, Bersatu.
