Nik Aziz Opposes Unity Government

KOTA BAHARU, March 15 (Bernama)-- Kelantan Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat today stressed he was against the idea of a Barisan Nasional (BN)-PAS unity government as mooted by PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang.
"It's been tried before but did not work out. PAS was not appreciated in the coalition and I have many misgivings about this," he told reporters when met at the home of Nik Nur Madihah Nik Mohd Nor, 18, who scored 20As in last year's Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia examination, in Kampung Parang Punting, near here.
However, Nik Aziz said he was only expressing his personal opinion and that the matter needed to be deliberated at PAS' Muktamar (annual general assembly) in June.
Following the suggestion for a unity government by Abdul Hadi, Umno vice president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin asked PAS to outline in detail what it had in mind.
Yesterday, PAS Youth voiced its support for the move saying it was timely.
However, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng demanded that the PAS president explain what he meant by a unity government to Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) and the DAP, PAS' allies in the Opposition pact.

tunku : nik aziz will work with zionist but not umno.anyway i don't like the idea of unity government.why we want to hold election then, just have everyone in the government.nik aziz should think as a muslim when he talks about unity.he has always had a bad intention against umno.this is not what an ulama suppose to do.when come to this,i think hadi awang is better than him.at least he is willing to cooperate.
