The relationship between Umno and PAS has soured considerably over the past few months, with Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi most recently describing PAS as “two-faced” and indecisive. While he has dismissed any possibility of working with PAS in GE15, PAS leaders have tried to keep Muafakat Nasional alive. We discuss the future of the political alliance and how this impacts UMNO's fortunes with political expert Dr. Hamidin Abdul Hamid. Image credit: Shutterstock.com
