Terengganu PKR Youth leader wants Hadi to drop racial stance

Malaysiakini

PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang's harping on Malay dominance to ensure the political stability of the country makes it clear that he is prepared to use racial issues and threaten the unity of this multiracial nation, said Terengganu PKR Youth's women bureau chief Leny Azmi.
"Maybe Hadi has forgotten that in his Perikatan Nasional (PN) government the vast majority are Malay-Muslim MPs and yet he does not seem sufficiently confident in the PN's government position. The question is - how much is enough?" asked Leny in a statement today.
She was responding to Hadi's comments in an interview with Reuters in which he expressed a wish for snap elections and said this was necessary to increase Malay representation in Parliament as well as legitimise the PN coalition's claim to power. 
"To ensure political stability, it is important to have the race that dominates society to lead the government," the PAS chief had said, in calling for the coalition led by Umno, Bersatu and PAS to establish a two-thirds majority in Parliament.
He also called for representation along racial lines, saying that areas that are majority Muslim should be represented by Muslims, and areas that are majority non-Muslim should be represented by non-Muslims.
Leny questioned why Hadi was insistent on using religious and racial factors to determine the governance of the country.
"The representation of Malay politicians is still over 60 percent in Parliament and Malays occupied a majority of important government positions in both the previous Pakatan Harapan government and the current PN administration.
"I think Hadi is afraid of his own shadow. He hopes that his coalition would win more than two-thirds of the majority in Parliament and is trying to use racial issues to win the people's votes."
She questioned Hadi's constant urging for the establishment of an Islamic state and asked if that meant that Malaysia was actually a secular country.
"In conjunction with the upcoming 63rd anniversary of Merdeka, I urge Malaysians not to look at racial issues in the current political landscape.
"A responsible elected representative should focus on finding solutions to solving the people's problems instead of disrupting the unity of Malaysians that has been built over such a long period.
"Malaysia does not belong to a single ethnic group - in the end, Malaysia belongs to all of us," Leny added. - Mkini
