NILAI: Barisan Nasional is open to accepting any party which wants to join the coalition, says its deputy chairman Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan.
However, he said a consensus must be reached among its four component parties – Umno, MIC, MCA and Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) – before approval would be given.
“We must be inclusive and not exclusive anymore. So, if you ask for my personal opinion, the more parties under the Barisan umbrella, the better, because each has its own strength and combined, will provide added synergy.
“This is what we have to do for Barisan to build new strength because we lost in the 14th General Election. Whatever Barisan stands for and its policies, there needs to be a review so that its two directions, which are strengthening the coalition and strategies for winning GE15, can be realised, ” he said.
