'A team comprising of Nik Aziz Nik Mat, Nizar Jamaluddin and Dr Asri would be formidable indeed. That is the ideal PAS Dream Team to lead Pakatan into the next general elections.'
There is something very wrong in the last PAS party election as the results do not jive with the ground sentiment, which are pro-Edrogan. Hadi and his so-called "problematic leaders" are clearly aware of the direction PAS should take and yet keep harping on the idea of "unity government".
Many people see these problematic leaders as moles planted by Umno, and the image is still there till now. They have to work hard to convince they are not Umno's moles in order to survive next general election.
The wisdom of Nik Aziz by suggesting EGM to rid of this problem is in fact, drawing a line in the sand between PAS and Hadi's group, and this bodes well for Pakatan Rakyat.
Individuals who knows about religion will not bring up race issue and it seems you have not learn after your fiasco in Terengganu. Wake up man, and be a Malaysian rather than a Malay.
PAS has much to contribute towards making Pakatan a much stronger coalition. Its commitment and discipline are excellent examples for the other parties in Pakatan to emulate. But PAS must play as part of the team.
It must focus on the values it shares with DAP and PKR and not make statements that are seen to violate non-Muslims' way of life. It is on the platform of these shared values that there was such a big swing in votes in Pakatan's favour in the March 2008 GE. Many non-muslims were voting for PAS candidates for the first time.
PAS, remember, as long as you do not make statements that infringe on the way of life of non-muslims, you will have their votes. It is not unreasonable to speculate that PAS lost in Bagan Pinang so miserably because of the sale of beer issues and the Beyonce concert issue in Selangor.
The professionals or the Erdogans and Tok Guru should lead the team because they have more wisdom in leading Pakatan. They also understand that in order to gain respect, you need to respect others. The other faction is too extreme for comfort.
