GE13: Najib – Pakatan’s inability to agree on fundamental questions will create tension in the country

Pakatan Rakyat's failure to agree on fundamental questions will create tensions and possible chaos in the country if they were to seize power at the general election, said Barisan Nasional chairman Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
"Can we place our trust in Pakatan? We cannot. Tensions will arise in our country with a situation of not just uncertainty but maybe chaos if they were to continue bickering among themselves when trying to form a (federal) government," Najib told a crowd of several thousand Barisan supporters at the 1Malaysia People's gathering here on Friday.
Najib urged Malaysians to consider carefully whether they could entrust Pakatan with the federal government because the Opposition grouping had consistently failed to reach consensus on key questions, including the selection of election candidates, which had resulted in PAS and PKR contesting against each other in one parliamentary and six state constituencies.
Najib also pointed out that Pakatan partners' failure to agree on who should be prime minister should Pakatan win indicated their inability to remain on the same page.
Najib told the crowd that he had received an increasingly positive feedback towards Barisan from the people in all his campaign stops nationwide so far.
This was due to growing confidence of the Barisan's capabilities to deliver on its pledges to the people, he said.
"This is why on May 5, if we want Malaysia to continue to remain a fast developing country with stability, peace and harmony, then the choice is Barisan," said Najib.
The gathering, which was held this morning, is the first of four events, which the Prime Minister is scheduled to attend during his one-day visit to Perak.
