DAP should respect PAS as it is!

It saddens me to read on the call of Drop Islamic state plan, DAP tells PAS.

Has PAS in any way has asked DAP to drop any of their principles? I don't think so.

DAP should appreciate and respect PAS' plan as it is their own welfare. PAS, being a party of Islamic principle has to adhere to the teaching of it's religion and setting up an Islamic state is the paramount objective of any Allah-fearing individual. There's nothing more important to them.

Different parties with different way of thoughts should work together for common gronds, and to forget what-ever small differing details, in order to succeed. As long as the opposition parties are continously bickering about small and petty matters, Barisan Nasional group of parties could continue rulling the country until the 'cows go home'.

Such a sorry state of affairs for the already frail opposition parties in Malaysia!

Drop Islamic state plan, DAP tells PAS

PETALING JAYA: The DAP has called on PAS' new leaders to drop their Islamic state objective so as to win over non-Muslims.

DAP national publicity bureau secretary Gobind Singh Deo said PAS would not win the support of non-Muslims so long as it continued with its political objective of achieving an Islamic state.

“What we now have are new leaders singing the old song,” he said in a statement yesterday.

He said the new leaders needed to consider dropping their Islamic state political objective if they really expected Malaysians to believe that the party was prepared to change.

New PAS deputy president Nasharudin Mat Isa was reported to have said that winning over non-Muslims was top on its agenda.
