PAS’ politics of desperation
From P Ramasamy
Are my ears fooling me, or did I hear PAS president Abdul Hadi saying that the Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition was formed to fight extremist forces in the country?
Did he say that these extremist forces are now operating in Melaka?
The self-righteous Hadi thinks that he can say whatever he wants simply because he comes from a holier-than-thou religious party, the bridge between heaven and earth.
As they say, it takes a thief to know another thief.
It is well known that Hadi is a racist and religious extremist. His political strategy is based on the principle of divide and rule, not just non-Muslims but also among Muslims.
Hadi thinks by labelling others as extremists, he can emerge as a moderate and respectful leader.
But unfortunately, it is too late in the day for this. He and his party are beyond redemption.
Gone are the respectful days of PAS’ former spiritual leader, the much beloved Tok Guru, Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat.
Maybe Hadi, since he knows so much about the extremist forces, should go one step further to name and shame them.
Maybe he should elaborate on the extremist forces that sought to amend the Constitution. What was the amendment about?
It is typical of wishy washy Hadi to say things in general to escape the responsibility of getting into specifics or details.
He fears that once he gets into these details, he might be exposed for his lies and deception.
Can Hadi name the extremist forces operating in Melaka. Is it the much disliked DAP and its allies?
By talking about extremism in Malaysian politics, is Hadi pressing the panic button in anticipation of a possible electoral disaster in Melaka?
Is there a real fear in the ranks of the members of the PN coalition that the Melaka election might be their Waterloo?
Hadi is a very desperate political leader.
If the PN is wiped out in the state election, PAS and Bersatu might not have a national presence to face the next general election (GE15).
Calling others extremists is an indication that all is not well with PAS or its leadership.
Its role in the federal government with ministerial appointments has certainly dented the religious stature of the party.
P Ramasamy is a Penang deputy chief minister.
