'Umno's decision to sever ties with Bersatu premature as polls far away'

Former BN secretary-general Annuar Musa has described Umno's decision to sever ties with Bersatu for the 15th general election (GE15) as a "premature" stance.

He was referring to a letter sent by Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, who is also the Bersatu president, informing the latter of the decision by the Umno supreme council.
