PAS becoming 'baffling', says veteran newsman
Former Bersatu supreme council member A Kadir Jasin has taken a swipe at PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang and PAS representatives in government, describing their actions as "chaotic, mindless, and desperate."
"In fact, their antics can be described as baffling," said the veteran newsman in a blog post.
Kadir said Hadi's performance since being appointed special envoy to the Middle East with minister status last April 2 was far from stellar.
"More than a year has passed with no real results.
"At the same time, the antics of other PAS leaders did not help and instead only made matters worse," he said.
He claimed that Hadi played no role in dealing with the latest Palestinian crisis following Israel's attack on Gaza, or in any other matters related to Malaysia's ties with the Middle East.
So much so that Kadir pointed out Hadi was not a part of Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin's official delegation to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates in March, despite the Marang MP's supporters claiming it was due to health reasons.
Kadir said Hadi should not have been appointed to the important position with a high salary and allowances if he was indeed in poor health.
"No one forced Hadi to take on the burden of responsibilities.
"The reality is, Hadi was not well received by conservative Arab countries," Kadir claimed.
He further claimed that Muhyiddin appointed Hadi to the position only as a tool to silence critics and to be the "boss" of the PAS president.

At the same time, Kadir said the performance of PAS leaders in government was equally unimpressive, adding that they appeared to be more known for sensational controversies such as Covid-19 SOP breaches and secret weddings.
"In conclusion, while Hadi is suffering from a loneliness syndrome and anxiety over losing his position, his subordinates are high on power, wealth, and glamour," Kadir said.
He also claimed PAS will try to prevent Parliament from sitting to ensure the government does not fall.
Meanwhile, Hadi in a blog post today claimed the country is not only faced with the Covid-19 pandemic but also an endless "politicking" pandemic.
He repeated claims that the previous Pakatan Harapan federal government won in the last 14th general election by making false promises and that their leaders refused to accept they are no longer in power.
"The role of politics can be put on hold until the next 15th general elections, and the people should not easily forget until they are fooled again and again," he said.
PAS ministers and leaders previously spoke up against calls for Parliament to reconvene ahead of Aug 1, an initial deadline for the current state of emergency to be lifted.

Hadi is a Holy Man, so all my PAS contacts tell me.
ReplyDeleteHadi is Hypocrisy personified. And the kind of lies he tells with a straight face tells much about his values.
ReplyDeleteIn another article he claims that the pandemic is a test from God and that only an islamic government can deal with the pandemic.
Well, he should then explain why the middle east countries, the bastion of Islam, still suffer from the pandemic.
All in all, Hadi does provide some comic relief with his nonsensical utterings.
