00:00A political analyst expects most Brisato leaders and members to support party president Mui

00:07Din Yassin's formula for the upcoming party post to prevent PAS from dominating Brigada

00:12Nacional.

00:14James Chin of the University of Tasmania said Brisato would avoid allowing open contests

00:19for top posts to keep party unity intact, knowing it risks having less influence in

00:24PN if more problems arise.

00:27Having seen six of its MPs pledging support for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, he also

00:31said Brisato would be quite afraid of losing out on a bigger scale in the next general

00:36election.

00:37Recently, Mui Din revealed his formula for the party post, which would see Deputy President

00:42Ahmad Faizal Azumu making way for Secretary-General Hamzah Zainuddin to take over the post.

00:47Hamzah's current post will be offered to Selangor opposition leader Azmin Ali, while

00:52Faizal will run for one of the three vice presidents' posts instead.

00:56Meanwhile, Akademi Nusantara's Azmi Hassan said Mui Din's plan would ensure stability

01:01in Brisato, but leadership issues would still persist.

01:04Azmi said Brisato's main challenge was the lack of inspiring leadership from Mui Din,

01:09whom he described as having lost the capability to project a vision for his party.

01:14Meanwhile, Azmil Taib of University Science Malaysia said Brisato should open its top

01:18posts for contests and let party members vote for their preferred leaders as this would

01:23give the party democratic credibility.
