Work with Bersatu, PAS in Johor, Amanah man tells PH
Mazlan Aliman said Umno had not shown any respect to its allies Bersatu and PAS by not consulting them before deciding to dissolve the Johor state assembly.
PETALING JAYA: An Amanah man has urged Pakatan Harapan to extend its “big tent” to Perikatan Nasional for the coming Johor state elections in order to prevent a Barisan Nasional win.
Mazlan Aliman, a former Amanah central committee member, said PH should look beyond working with other opposition parties like Pejuang, Warisan and Muda for the polls, noting that Umno seemed confident of winning a two-thirds majority.
In a statement, he pointed out that Umno had not shown any respect to its allies Bersatu and PAS by not consulting them before deciding to dissolve the Johor state assembly.
He said a PH cooperation with Warisan, Pejuang, Muda, Bersatu and PAS would be a real picture of “Keluarga Malaysia”, referring to Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s catchphrase since taking the top post.
“PH and opposition parties must forget their squabbles for the sake of the people’s interests,” the Felda activist said in a statement today.
He acknowledged that it would be difficult for PH to forget the infamous Sheraton Move that led to the fall of the PH government at the federal level and in some states, describing it as “bitter and tragic”.
However, he urged PH to consider this suggestion in order to bring hope to the people, whom he said have grown sick towards politics and the various crises that have affected the nation, including the pandemic and recent floods.
The Johor state assembly was dissolved on Saturday after weeks of speculation and calls from Umno leaders for fresh polls.
The Election Commission is scheduled to meet on Feb 9 to decide on the date for the state election.

One cannot trust Anmanah which always has the hots for Atuk and his Bersatu, especially in PH days, but that 'hots' have been noticed to continue even after th Sheraton Move.
And I don't see the relevance of Mazlan Aliman's criticism that "that Umno had not shown any respect to its allies Bersatu and PAS by not consulting them before deciding to dissolve the Johor state assembly."
WTF has that got to do with Amanah or Pakatan? It's an internal issue of PN. Besides UMNO has already divorced both PAS and Bersatu. But it does point out the Amanah 'hots' for Bersatu. Ta'bolih dipercayai lah, even forgetting Bersatu's disgusting treachery in the Sheraton Move, especially of Ass-binte and cohorts.
If I were UMNO, I would also want to go solo. After all, the momentum is presently with UMNO.
ReplyDeleteTo suggest that PH work with Bersatu and PAS in Johor speaks of a man of low integrity. Both Bersatu and PAS are treacherous animals.
And that is the problem in Malaysia - lack of integrity in our politicians. It is always about finding ways to be accomodating for personal benefit. It explains the many frogs we have.
I wonder if the anti-hopping legislation will really come to pass.
