Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin's role as Opposition Leader in Parliament remains unconfirmed despite his reappointment, with Perikatan Nasional yet to issue formal notification of the arrangement.
Suspended Bersatu vice-president Kiandee has defended the appointment of Hamzah Zainudin as opposition leader, stating the Larut MP secured unified backing from PAS and the majority of Bersatu parliamentarians.
Opposition MPs including Hamzah Zainudin were seen entering PAS headquarters for a closed-door meeting as political tensions within Perikatan Nasional intensify following PAS's decision to sever ties with Bersatu.
Perikatan Nasional's embrace of Hamzah Zainudin as a frontline figure reflects the coalition's deliberate effort to cultivate a more centrist image ahead of GE16, analysts suggest.
