Right or wrong, whether PAS Syura Council discussed the issue or not,
PAS cannot deny the growing dissent against the political relationship
it has with DAP and PKR and most importantly support Anwar Ibrahim as
Prime Minister.
Open protests calling for the party to cut ties with the other two
opposition parties are now a norm and PAS leadership has no choice but
to listen and make amends as its influence is eroding fast among the
kampong people, the party’s supporters who have been following blindly
those days.
But these days, the kampong folks no longer follow the party blindly as
they are educated or rather informed through the internet on the goings
on and issues played up.
They know the demand and high-handed way DAP leaders such as Karpal
Singh and Lim Guan Eng handle PAS leaders on issues involving the
fundamentals of Islam.
They know Karpal and Guan Eng have been ridiculing their leaders and
Islam and they are very surprise at the ‘no respect’ attitude of DAP
leaders towards their leaders as well as Islam.
Not only that, even the PM post is dictated by DAP, not on concensus as
PAS has always wanted the party president to be the Prime Minister, a
post party members have dreamt off since the 50s.
PAS members who are the veteran fundamentalists have been struggling
hard to have one of their own as Prime Minister and now, when they see
Putrajaya is so near (that’s the hopes of all in the opposition) and
suddenly some one else hijack the position.
They are not that generous to allow that to happen and they would not
want the individual whom they do not trust and of low moral to be in
that position.
They know Anwar and they know how damaging it would be if he is the
Prime Minister because the veterans know Anwar’s character when they
were together in ABIM and now in the opposition pact.
They know PKR is a party without ideology and concept…and they know PKR
has no religious stand while Anwar is willing to sell everything just to
be the Prime Minister.
Anwar is not PAS type of leader and his character is known to PAS
veterans who always have reservations on his credibility and honesty as
they now felt Anwar’s ‘hands’ trying to steer the party to his benefits.
They see all this and they do not like it, not when they are on a
winning streak. So they felt Anwar is not the man for PM post and they
will not support DAP and PKR on this.
The situation may see PAS going to the general election on its own while
DAP may just dump PKR to relase the party of excess baggage.
