SHAH ALAM - A group of Selangor residents wants PAS to withdraw from the tripartite pact with the DAP and PKR, saying the two parties were deceiving and neglecting PAS in the state’s decision-making.
While the group claimed they are PAS members, party insiders believe they are Umno supporters out to destablise the Pakatan Rakyat administration in Selangor.
Group spokesman Wan Hilman Abdul Rahim, who said he is from the PAS Gombak division, said they will be submitting a memorandum to Selangor PAS chief Hassan Ali (pic), who is also a state executive councillor,on Monday.
Grievances against alliance
The memorandum spells out their grievances against the Pakatan Rakyat adminiustration in Selangor.
"We feel PAS is being deceived and neglected in the decision-making process. We are not happy with the way the Selangor government takes care of Islamic interests and the people, especially the Malays,” said Wan Hilman.
The group of about 20 people held a peaceful demonstration outside the Selangor PAS office here Sunday.
“We want PAS to review its position in the Pakatan pact in Selangor," he told reporters at the scene.
He denied their action was ‘orchestrated’ by either Selangor Umno or PKR advisor Anwar Ibrahim.
'Don't accept memo'
It is learnt that in the past few days an SMS was being circulated to urge the Malays in Selangor to take part in the anti-Pakatan protest.
A PAS official who received the SMS said he traced the source of the phone message to an Umno leader.
Commenting on the matter, PAS vice-president Salahuddin Ayub said the party was not connected to the group. He alleged it was formed to belittle the party.
"I do not know them. The group does not come under us (PAS), and this is all slanderous," he said when contacted by Bernama.
Salahuddin, the Kubang Kerian MP, said PAS will study the issue before considering whether ornot to sue the group. "We will look into that (legal action) later. Let things be for now," he said.
Meanwhile, a p
ro-PAS blogger, bongkarsauh, urged Hassan not to accept the memorandum.
To accept the memorandum would mean going against the fellowship principle of the Pakatan, the blogger said.
New state govt in January?
“An important stand has to be made. This is not the time to show goodness, be friendly, be open minded..and what else...with those who have devious intentions,” the blogger added.
In another development, blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin (pic) said Umno leaders was spreading the word within the various state government agencies that the Barisan Nasional is set to take over the Selangor government in January.
“Following this, state agencies that are still led by Umno supporters are not functioning as they should,” he said, adding that these agencies were waiting to see if this prediction would come true. – Malaysian Mirror
Still think MCA is relevant in Selangor?
ReplyDeleteCMF is from Selangor. She has deep root in Selangor and she enjoys a lot of support from MCA grassroots in Selangor.
So much support that even OTK loses to her, in gaining statewide support.
Is MCA still relevant in Selangor?
Between CMF and a PAS candidate, I vote PAS. She had demonstrated her uselessness. She spent her time buttering OKT to move up, instead of serving the people. Celaka woman.
