The treachery of Hassan Ali

Malaysiakini reported that highly respected Khalid Samad of PAS asked his party colleague the notorious Hassan Ali 'Is drinking beer worse than misusing public funds?'

It'll be great if that Hassan has the balls to answer.

Many, including some in PAS, have been of the opinion that Hassan Ali is DELIBERATELY ‘sowing discord’ (Malaysiakini's words) within Pakatan to destabilise its administration of Selangor.

As there can only be one beneficiary of Pakatan’s failure in Selangor, and Hassan Ali’s actions have been seen/assessed as intentionally directed towards Pakatan faiulure, don’t blame us for calling a spade a spade, that he is an UMNO collaborator, a quisling, but one who doesn’t have the guts to state he prefers UMNO.

If he has any honour he should leave and join UMNO.

Talking about 'honour', Teng Chang Khim publicly called him a blatant liar and he couldn't even/daren't refute that!

Khalid Samad, frustrated by his PAS colleagues reluctance or refusal to censure Hassan Ali for his treacherous conduct, asked pointedly on his blog (and thus publicly) of Hassan’s demand to have the Selcat inquiry behind closed doors: "If the issue is embarrassing or humiliating (the civil servants), why didn't we oppose the whipping sentence on Kartika? Is misappropriation of public funds less important than (the penalty) for drinking alcohol?"

"Are we implying that Islam is lenient on the former and not the latter? If we accept the whipping sentence against Kartika, then the open investigation (by the inquiry) should not be objected to."

Khalid Samad has shown beyond any doubt that Hassan has brought shame to Islam by implying such, ...

... and for what, other than to protect UMNO.

And don’t forget, Teng exposed his hypocrisy regarding the welfare of the District Officers because he (Hassan Ali) had been quietly pushing for their replacements.

The hypocrisy and sinister double-standard intention of Hassan Ali was also amply demonstrated by his condemnation of Selcat’s public query of the District Officers (as should be the case), yet publicly criticizing his ADUN colleagues, in the same manner which he said shouldn’t be done.

What’s good for the goose is obviously not good for the gander. This has been the conduct of a man who in reality doesn’t really care about the District Officers being questioned about BN's lack of financial governance but more about protecting his UMNO mates.

Khalid Samad asked Hassan Ali to resign from the state exco and assume a position as backbencher if he wants to be a maverick, one who stabs his Pakatan colleagues in their backs to only benefit UMNO.

But this man is so thick skinned that he won’t have the decency to go.

But worse, he is supported by ‘Malay unity’ champions Pak Haji Hadi Awang and Nasaruddin, both of whom prefer to be in bed with UMNO rather than work with their PKR and DAP colleagues in Pakatan.
