I congratulate the PAS President Hadi Awang for not suffering from the intellectual inadequacy of mistaking my personal suggestion that Pas should join the Anwar unity government as an official DAP or government invitation, but it also showed that all the other PAS leaders, including the Mursyidul Am, the Deputy President and the Information Chief did not know what their President was talking about.
If the other PAS leaders do not know what their President was talking about, it is expected that the other political parties in the Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition, including Bersatu, have no idea what the PAS President was talking about.
I have in fact not met the 10th Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim for any discussion since he became Prime Minister last November.
Hadi said yesterday that the offer to join unity government was made after the 15th General Election and that there had not been any offers to join the Anwar unity government since.
Hadi was probably referring to the Yang di Pertuan Agong’s proposal for an unity government between Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Perikatan Nasional (PN) during Yang di Pertuan Agong’s audience with political leaders on Nov. 22, 2022, which was rejected by PN – before Anwar was sworn in as the 10th Prime Minister on 24th November 2022.
It was irresponsible and dishonest for Hadi to claim recently that “certain individuals” had “repeatedly” reached out to him to collaborate with the Anwar unity government, when this happened some seven months ago during the Yang di Pertuan Agong’s audience on Nov. 22, 2022, and it was even more irresponsible and dishonest for other PAS leaders to echo Hadi’s talk as if they were recent occurrences.
This incident has only highlighted why Hadi is not a responsible, honest and respected Islamic leader, as he not only made wild and preposterous allegations which he was unable to substantiate for months, but he could spark a controversy that PAS was recently invited to join the Anwar unity government, when it did not happened at all.
