Notes

  1. All members of the Supreme Leaders Council and the annual general meeting (AGM) agreed and confirmed accepting the promotion of Hamzah Zainudin as deputy president. This is one of the tactics and strategies of president Muhyiddin Yassin to reinforce the party's strength and avoid internal divisions within the party. However, all members in BERSATU are allowed to contest according to the party's constitution.
