Is desperation the mother of all political invention?
All 51 UMNO MPs have signed statutory declarations empowering Zahid as party president to negotiate with political parties outside of Barisan Nasional (BN) to form an alliance which would enable the Malay party to once again assume federal power.
Meanwhile, PAS assumes confidently (arrogantly?) that UMNO is enssnared in its net of political intrigue.
What about MCA.
And MIC?

KUALA TERENGGANU: The formation of a new political pact to replace Barisan Nasional is not impossible in the future, said Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang…
The PAS president said Malaysian political history has shown that pacts are never permanent, as parties change alliances many times.
“Umno joined the Bandung Conference during (former PAS president) Dr Burhanuddin Helmy’s time in 1955.
“PAS also participated in the movement to secure independence in 1957, although we had a different view of how independence should be achieved,” he said.
Following the May 13, 1969, incident, the country needed unity, and PAS agreed to join the coalition government.
When the Alliance was disbanded in 1974, Barisan Nasional was formed. PAS was also involved then.
“So if the Alliance had a lifespan, surely it is the same with Barisan.
“There will be a change someday, so let’s just wait and see,” said Abdul Hadi at a press conference after opening the PAS Supporters Club convention here.
The convention is held on the sidelines of the PAS muktamar (general assembly).

Mahathir doesn’t want UMNO in PH…
PETALING JAYA, Sept 14 (Bernama) — Pakatan Harapan (PH) will not accept UMNO into its fold, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today.
The prime minister, however, said UMNO members can join PH component parties if they individually quit their own party first.
“If they (UMNO) want to work with PKR, no way we will accept them into Pakatan Harapan (as a component party).
“But if they individually join as party members of PKR, Bersatu, DAP, or whatever, then we can accept them, but not the party,” he told a press conference here today after chairing the supreme leadership council meeting of Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) of which he is chairman.
The prime minister was asked on the possibility of UMNO working together with PKR and return back as government.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 15 ― Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has confirmed that all Umno MPs did indeed sign statutory declarations empowering him as party president to negotiate with political parties outside of Barisan Nasional (BN).
The negotiation is for one primary purpose ― to form an alliance which would enable the Malay party to once again assume federal power.
The Bagan Datuk MP was responding to Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz’s argument that Umno should stay out of the Port Dickson by-election as a show of “goodwill” to PKR.
“All of them,” Zahid told Malay Mail when asked how many out of the 51 Umno MPs signed the SDs.
