The fourth Bersatu Assembly will take place for three days starting on Friday.

Tuan Ibrahim said the lack of Pas representatives at the assembly was caused by the party leaders being forced to attend meetings in their respective areas.

"We have been informed and there were invitations, but coincidentally Pas have a general meeting at the time, a large number of leaders are forced to officiate (the general meetings) in their respective areas," he said.

In the 15th general elections (GE15) Pas won 49 Parliamentary seats becoming the party who won the largest seats in the coalition.
