As such, voters must not give them (PR) the mandate to rule the country, because they are not a strong coalition said Muhyiddin citing the latest crisis in the PR pact.
Muhyiddin said in the latest debacle, a DAP leader has asked non-Malays to refrain from voting for PAS which is clear that PR is a loose cooperation as and neither is there unity nor understanding between them since they have different ideologies.
Citing the example of Johor DAP deputy chairman Norman Fernandez's call to Johoreans and non-Muslims not to vote for PAS, Muhyiddin said this was proof that cracks in the opposition were far bigger than imagined.
"They are not united...they are in crisis because some DAP leaders have asked non-Malays to shun PAS although PAS is in their coalition. How can they ask their own members to not vote for one of them. What's happening?" said Muhyiddin when speaking to voters at the Desa Mentari Flats in Petaling Jaya, here, Wednesday night.
Muhyiddin also chided PAS for sidelining its principles to gain DAP's support. As such, he said, the people should strongly reject the opposition's slogan of "Ubah" (change), which he described as being an idea that has yet to be proven.
"For the past 56 years, the Barisan Nasional-led government has proven to be the platform for Malaysia to enjoy a stable economy, peace, harmony and racial unity.
"We should not derail the continuous development, economic growth and transformation enjoyed under the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak who is still young at 59, compared with Kit Siang, Karpal Singh, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim or Datuk Nik Aziz Nik Mat," he said.
Muhyiddin added that the PR's 'all free' offer was merely aimed at attracting voters and not a promise that need to be fulfilled.
They (PR) had failed to conduct a detailed study on the financial implications for making such offers because the country needs a strong financial standing to achieve the developed nation status by 2020.
