00:07over vernacular schools, will last.

00:10Awang Asman Pawi of University Malaya said he was not sure whether Bersatu could play

00:15the mediator between the two parties in the long run, due to PAS' growing dominance

00:20in Perikatan Nasional.

00:22He said the existing peace will largely depend on what PAS believes would enable it to gain

00:27greater political advantage.

00:30O E San of the Singapore Institute of International Affairs also said PAS is increasingly dictating

00:35terms in the coalition, while Bersatu is losing its influence.

00:40Moving forward, he expects Gorakan to toe PAS' line, as leaving PN will not be a viable

00:45option for the party.

00:48PAS and Gorakan leaders have recently bickered over the role breweries play in raising funds

00:53for Chinese schools.

00:55However, on Saturday, PN Secretary-General Hamzah Zainuddin said the dispute had been

01:00resolved amicably after a meeting between PAS and Gorakan leaders.
