In his
book, DAP senator Liew Chin Tong said disagreements dated back to Bersatu’s
early relationship with the opposition.
PETALING JAYA: The
Pakatan Harapan was a coalition that looked doomed from the start, with cracks
already evident in the run-up to the 14th general election (GE14) and in the
aftermath, says Liew Ching Tong.
In his biography of party
stalwart Lim Kit Siang, titled “Lim Kit Siang: Patriot. Leader. Fighter”, the
DAP man says the leaders were routinely clashing over policies and roles and
the frequent disagreements dated back to Bersatu’s relationship with the
opposition bloc.
He added that then
Bersatu chairman Dr Mahathir Mohamad had even ordered his party to pull out of
the coalition in 2017, unless the rest acceded to his wish to be named as the
prime ministerial candidate.
