Politicians Focused On Politics, Ignoring Rakyat's Woes

Politicians Focused On Politics, Ignoring Rakyat's Woes

In the past week, news has been percolating about a possible cooperation between PAS and UMNO, reviving a 2018 team up. This was denied by the UMNO president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, and comes on the heels of the Nenggiri state by-election where Bersatu is likely to contest under a PAS banner. Prof Dr Azmi Hassan, a political analyst and senior fellow at the Nusantara Academy for Strategic Research helps us analyse the latest political shenanigans, as politicians continue to out their own interest above the rakyat's.
