MORE HOT GAS FROM IBRAHIM ALI: 'Pas should lead Pakatan, just like Umno leads BN

Perkasa president Ibrahim Ali said today PAS should lead Pakatan Rakyat, if the coalition is serious about competing with the BN in a two-party system.

This is because, Ibrahimn said, PAS is a Malay-majority party, like Umno, which leads the BN.
