The Malaysian United Party (Malay: Parti Bersama Malaysia, abbreviated MUP) is a small political party registered in 2016 and based in George Town, Penang.
The party's stated intention was to act as a third force in Malaysian politics and assume the role of providing check and balance on both the ruling and opposition parties.[1]
The initial membership of the party consisted of civil society members from the ethnic Chinese community helmed by business owner, Tan Gin Theam, and aided by two former Barisan Nasional politicians, David Yim and Lim Boo Chang.[2]
