Ibrahim claimed that 60% of its members were Umno members while its younger members were not politically-affiliated. Perkasa brushed off Umno’s statement that the largest component party in the Barisan Nasional neither needs nor has ties with Perkasa. “We have no ties to sever with Umno as we do not have ties in the first place,” its founder Datuk Ibrahim Ali said.
Tengku Adnan said that most Perkasa leaders were defeated in the last Umno elections and had sought a political platform for them to be heard. “They are not wanted in Umno, they are no more leaders, they are just ordinary members. Umno has nothing to do with Perkasa,” he said, adding that the party would not back Ibrahim in the next general election.
