CNA – Malaysia’s Parti Pejuang Tanah Air (Pejuang) on Saturday announced its withdrawal from the Gerakan Tanah Air (GTA) coalition, to focus on strengthening the party.
Its president Mukhriz Mahathir said the decision was made after taking into account the views of delegates in the second general assembly of Pejuang on Saturday, following the party’s poor performance in the country’s 15th general election (GE15). Pejuang, established by former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, failed to win any contested Parliamentary seats in the 2022 polls.
However, Mukhriz said Pejuang’s stance was to remain open to holding any negotiations with the existing political coalitions in facing the state polls which will take place this year.
