PERIKATAN Nasional (PN) will station so-called special agents at campaign sites to monitor whether members help other parties to campaign during the general election, according to secretary-general Hamzah Zainudin.

He said if the agents received reports with evidence that PN members are campaigning for other parties, they will be stripped of their membership.

“We will place agents to monitor all party members and if they are found to be helping rival parties, action will be taken against them. We will track these members (those who campaign for other parties) based on reports from their division heads or chairman.

“Such reports must be accompanied with evidence. If investigations reveal that the reported individual is from PN, we will immediately take action and terminate their membership,” he said in Tasek Gelugor, last night. – Bernama, November 9, 2022.
