00:00Analysts say a showdown between Rafizi Ramli and Nuru Iza Anwar for the second highest spot in PKR could leave the ruling party more fractured than fortified.

00:13A senior party source told FMT that there would be no real winner in this contest if it were to take place.

00:21The source said if Rafizi wins, some will say he no longer commands the full confidence of the party.

00:28On the other hand, the source said if Nuru Iza wins, critics will say it's because of a father, PKR President and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.

00:38Yesterday, Rafizi declared his intention to defend the post of deputy president while speculation grows that Nuru Iza may be pressured to challenge Rafizi.

00:49The source also said that the battle for the deputy president's post had been seen as a contest between Rafizi and PKR Secretary General Saifuddin Nasution Ismail until internal rumblings brought Nuru Iza's name to the surface.

01:05Party nominations are set to open today and tomorrow with internal leadership polls to follow on May 23rd.
