Congrats to Samsuri for winning Kemaman by-election – will Hadi step down as PAS President to allow Samsuri to lead a PAS which is more moderate and open-minded

I congratulate Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar for his victory in the Kemaman by-election.

The question now is whether Hadi Awang will step down as PAS President for Samsuri to take over to lead a PAS which is more moderate and open-minded, which divorces itself from the hate speech and lies, falsehoods and fake news which PAS had been identified since leaving the Pakatan Rakyat in 2015.

The future of Malaysia will be a very bleak one if the leading party of the Opposition in Parliament is led by one where its MPs, including those with PHD qualification, are totally “media illiterate” and cannot differentiate between truth and lies or differentiate between falsehoods and fake news with untruths.

Samsuri is an aero-nautical engineer.

Will he take PAS to a new era more relevant to Malaysia’s realities and needs?
