DAP Youth vice-chief Muhammad Shakir Amir has urged Pakatan Harapan parties to use the current Perak Menteri Besar crisis to build a new consensus among the opposition to restore unity ahead of any imminent elections.

Shakir backed the call of Amanah Youth Chief Shazni Munir Mohd Ithnin who called upon all opposition parties to hold talks and work out terms for their new cooperation after the opposition's repeated failure to reject the budget at the committee stage.
