UPDATED 1.15PM Samy Vellu didin't want V Mugilan, Muhyiddin Yassin said G Palanivel was a no-go. Both parties are said to have settled on compromise candidate P Kamalanathan.
Samy Vellu met Muhyiddin in the deputy prime minister's office in Parliament House early this morning in a last-ditch effort to secure Palanivel's candidacy but Muhyiddin insisted on fielding a candidate other than Palanivel, prompting Samy Vellu to leave in order to consult his party's top brass at his home in Jalan Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur and it is learnt that party information chief P Kamalanathan whose name was on the top of the list of compromise candidates, had tentatively been selected.
