PETALING JAYA: PAS treasurer-general Iskandar Abdul Samad has advised party members to prioritise their responsibilities to the party before contributing to the fund to help settle former prime minister Najib Razak’s RM50 million fine.
Iskandar said PAS members should prioritise contributing to the fund to build the Islamic party’s new headquarters near Putrajaya, which would also cost about RM50 million.
He said PAS members should contribute to the party’s “Infaq Istiqamah” monthly donation scheme and their relevant local divisions and branches.
“As PAS treasurer-general, I would definitely want PAS members to prioritise their responsibilities (to the party),” he told FMT.
Iskandar also said he believed that Umno supporters alone would be able to cover the amount required.
He was asked if PAS would contribute to the fund launched by Umno to help Najib pay the RM50 million fine as part of his conditional pardon to serve the remainder of his jail term under house arrest.
PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man previously said the party was leaving it to members to decide whether to contribute to Najib’s fund.
