No need to wait for Perlis assembly meeting to topple MB, says Sanusi


PAS election director Sanusi Nor says SDs will be sufficient if the party really intends to oust menteri besar Abu Bakar Hamzah


Sanusi Nor said PAS assemblymen can collect statutory declarations to prove that they have lost confidence in the Perlis menteri besar if they genuinely want to unseat him.



PETALING JAYA: PAS election director Sanusi Nor says the party’s assemblymen in Perlis can move against menteri besar Abu Bakar Hamzah before next month’s state assembly meeting if they truly intend to oust him.

Sanusi said such a move, if it were to materialise, could be carried out by collecting statutory declarations to prove that Abu Bakar has lost majority support, Sinar Harian reported.

“There is no need to wait for the state assembly meeting to table a no-confidence motion. They can collect and submit SDs before the meeting.


“If there is no way out (to resolving the crisis), then the assembly must be dissolved, but it will be tough for me, too, because I will have to go campaigning,” the Kedah menteri besar said in jest at a press conference at his official residence, Seri Mentaloon, in Alor Setar today.

On Friday, Abu Bakar said he would dissolve the state assembly if the six PAS assemblymen tabled a no-confidence motion against him at the upcoming meeting from June 3 to 5.

His remarks came a day after PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang said the party was reviewing its alliance with Bersatu.

Hadi said Bersatu had failed to uphold coalition solidarity, citing the political crisis in Negeri Sembilan, and the Bersatu assemblymen who withdrew support for then Perlis menteri besar Shukri Ramli of PAS.

They had demanded an explanation from Abu Bakar over his decision to postpone the state assembly meeting, which had been originally scheduled to be held from April 21 to 23.

The six PAS assemblymen are Shukri (Sanglang), Muhammad Azmir Azizan (Santan), Asrul Aimran Abd Jalil (Kayang), Razali Saad (Simpang Empat), Wan Badariah Wan Saad (Mata Ayer) and Haziq Asyraf Dun (Beseri).

Abu Bakar denied the postponement was due to fears of being toppled, insisting that the Perlis PN government remained stable.

Perlis PAS information chief Zahid Ibrahim previously said none of the party’s assemblymen would table such a motion.
