KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor (pix) wants the Registrar of
Societies (RoS) to stop the approval of Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia over the
use of the acronym Bersatu.
The Umno secretary-general said the party should not use the word "Bersatu" as i
t is a common word that could mislead the people.
"He wants to establish (a new party) which is alright. But, he cannot use the wo
rd 'bersatu' as it is common.
"I urged the Registrar of Society
if they want to approve then go ahead but if i
t is possible tell them not to use the word 'Bersatu'," Tengku Adnan told report
ers at Bukit Jalil.
He was commenting of former deputy prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin who s
ubmitted an application to register Parti Pribumi last week.
Tengku Adnan, who is Federal Territories Minister, said the RoS should look into
such issues before approving any new party or organisation.
He also questioned the registration of Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah) in which the
word Amanah is common and widely used.
"I also do not understand why (Amanah) was approved. Amanah is also

common .

"Therefore, I hope the ROS director-general could look into this, where they are

using words like this to confuse the public," he said.

Tengku Adnan said despite the emergence of the Umno splinter party, Umno would s
till be the people's choice.
He said Umno has gone through many ups and downs since its inception in 1959.
We will in the end achieve success, that is my believe because Umno is a party th
at has focus, and is inclusive of other races," he said.
