Power-crazed ulama will join Umno, rest of Pas has to decide: Pas, Umno will form unity govt - Utusan
KUALA LUMPUR - PAS and Umno have shown their willingness to set aside their political differences for a common cause, as seen in their joint effort to help the Kelantan flood victims, according to Umno mouthpiece Utusan Malaysia.
The paper today published a report of its interview with PAS Central Working Committee member Nik Mohamad Abduh Abdul Aziz, in which the latter was quoted as saying that cooperation between the two parties was established with the setting up of the Kelantan Flood Disaster Committee on December 26.
“We at the party level are also finding ways to enhance cooperation between the two parties,” Nik Abduh reportedly said. “I see politics as a small issue. I believe the people of Kelantan or even the whole country would agree the flood problems are beyond political boundaries.”
Utusan also reported that two Umno supreme council members – Asyraf Wajdi Dusuk and Mohd Puad Zarkashi – had called on Umno and PAS to use their cooperation in disaster management as a launching pad for political cooperation in the interest of the Muslim community.
Asyraf was quoted as saying that the two parties needed to look at the floods as a message from God that relations between Muslims must be repaired.
He described the joint committee as the “silver lining” appearing amidst the political acrimony between the two parties.
“This bridge should be strengthened, especially after the floods,” he reportedly said.
Puad said the two parties should learn from the Aceh tsunami tragedy.
“If the decades of dispute (between Aceh and the Jakarta administration) that killed tens of thousands in Aceh can be solved with unity after the tragedy, there is no reason for Umno and PAS not to do the same for the sake of the nation and Islam,” he was quoted as saying.
“I support any effort towards cooperation that can be established because the difference between Umno and PAS is a matter of methodology. The two parties have the same goal.”
Another Utusan report quoted Ummah Welfare Association Malaysia (Pasma) president Phahrolrazi Mohd Zawawi as saying he was in support of the idea of Umno and PAS working together to rebuild the lives of those ravaged by the floods.
Pasma is an NGO made up of PAS members belonging to the so-called moderate faction of the party.
Phahrolrazi said the Umno-dominated Federal Government and the PAS-controlled Kelantan Government needed each other to ensure the welfare and prosperity of the people.
“I fully support the proposal that both sides work together in the interest of the people in the state,” Utusan quoted him as saying. - FMT
