PSM's Dr Nasir wants Hadi Awang's clarification on "Marxism"

Parti Socialist Malaysia (PSM) chairman Dr Nasir Hashim wants PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang to clarify his statement implicating him (Dr Nasir) as a communist advocate.
"We want Abdul Hadi to clarify because it is obvious that the spotlight is on us.
"If it is true that the statement is directed at us, we demand that Abdul Hadi prove that we promote communism and is anti-Islam.
"If not he needs to apologize because it is not true.
"PSM is a party that believes in socialism and is not a communist party let alone against Islamic values and beliefs.
"It is also unnecessary and inappropriate of him to call PKR candidates "syaitan" (devils)," said Dr Nasir, the PSM candidate for the Kota Damansara state seat.
Hadi was quoted as saying that PAS was going against PKR in seven seats to "save" the pact.
He claimed his party found some of the candidates fielded for the May 5 polls by PKR had moral issues while some "subscribed to Marxism".
