KUALA LUMPUR - The largest party in Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin's government has told him that it will not ally itself with his Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia at a general election expected soon after Malaysia's state of emergency ends in August.
Bersatu secretary-general Hamzah Zainudin said Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had written on Feb 26 to Tan Sri Muhyiddin that their pact will end as soon as Parliament is dissolved.
