00:07to contest for the Deputy President's post seems to suggest that the party lacks a succession

00:13plan.

00:14This is what Shazah Shukri of International Islamic University Malaysia told FMT after

00:19Muhyiddin said Bersatu's incumbent Deputy President Ahmad Faizal Azumu would step down

00:25and make way for Hamzah.

00:28However, Bersatu's Vice-President Ronald Kyandi later clarified that Muhyiddin's proposal

00:33was merely a suggestion.

00:35Kyandi said no motions have been submitted to keep any positions in the party uncontested.

00:42In response, Shazah said such internal negotiations would prevent the party and the country's

00:48political scene from undergoing regeneration and growth.

00:52She also said it is very common nowadays for parties to negotiate positions instead

00:58of engaging in straight fights at party polls.

01:01Meanwhile, Analyst Adib Zalqapli said Muhyiddin's proposal amounted to Bersatu's attempt at

01:08presenting a line-up that can be a credible alternative to the current government.
