Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) would let Pakatan Rakyat decide on the next course of action on its (PSM’s) participation in the alliance as the ball is in their court.
“There is a dialogue. We are open and willing to discuss. The ball is in Pakatan’s court.
“A lot time have been wasted on attempting to know what’s happening with us and Pakatan,” said PSM secretary general S Arutchelvan to journalists at the closing of the party’s 15th national congress held in Tanah Rata yesterday.
He was commenting on the PSM-Pakatan relations following their outing in the 13th general election with Pakatan.
Pakatan components had fielded candidates in three out of four seats that PSM contested that resulted in multiple cornered fights. PSM also was not allowed to use their white fist logo in two constituencies.
Arutchelvan said that no dates have been set for the meeting.
He added that PSM would in the meantime concentrate on building the left movement.
