The Registrar of Societies' (ROS) sudden decision to ask DAP to hold a re-election only shows BN is in panic, said a PKR leader.

PKR communications director Fahmi Fadzil said the move comes as no surprise in light of former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad's move this week to accept his former rival Anwar Ibrahim as Pakatan Harapan's PM-in-waiting.

“(The ROS move) is not surprising at all […]. The prime minister's press secretary (Tengku Sarifuddin Tengku Ahmad) already foretold this on July 3,” he in a statement today.
