PN to continue support for PM Ismail

Perikatan Nasional (PN) is committed to supporting the leadership of Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob for the sake of political stability in the country, says Bersatu vice-president Ronald Kiandee.

"The mandate period of the 14th general election (GE14) will end in May next year, so we have given our commitment to continue supporting the prime minister (Ismail Sabri) and this government. 

"This is to ensure continued political stability in the country until the general election is called," Ronald, who is also a member of the PN Supreme Council, said when met by reporters in Serdang yesterday.

PN comprises Bersatu, PAS, Gerakan, Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (STAR) and Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP).

In Kuala Terengganu, PAS vice-president Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar said talk that PN was mulling the withdrawal of support for the government was merely the view of certain quarters.

The Terengganu menteri besar said that in fact, the PAS-led state government was planning to implement more things together with the federal government.

He was speaking to reporters after the launch of a campaign at Wisma Darul Iman.
