An agreement between PAS and Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) will lead to stronger ties between opposition parties, said Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin.

"Bersatu before this signed an agreement with Pakatan Harapan and this cooperation will continue.

"This agreement reached with PAS will complete efforts to creating a political pact between opposition parties, and InsyaAllah (God willing), strengthen the opposition's position, come the 14th general election," Muhyiddin said in a statement today.

Muhyiddin is also praying that he can ink an agreement with PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang within the next few days.

However, a PAS strategist did not appear to share the same optimism.

"There is still a long way to go," said PAS research centre director Mohd Zuhdi Marzuki.
