SHAH ALAM, Dec 15 — PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today confirmed early negotiations for Umno’s Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz to possibly join his party.
Speaking outside his party’s special congress here today, Anwar declined to disclose the parties involved in the discussion.
“There are currently preliminary discussions,” Anwar said after he was asked whether Tengku Zafrul has applied to join PKR.
Earlier this week, a news portal published a speculative report suggesting that Tengku Zafrul would jump from Umno to PKR, which are both nominally allies in the national unity government.
Earlier today, Tengku Zafrul said he would clarify the rumour soon, but without expressly denying them.
