Najib however brushed off the concern, saying that the aim of the charter was allegedly to defend the Federal Constitution as well as to also safeguard the interests of those of other ethnicities and beliefs.
“No, Apek. Why? Firstly, we defend the Constitution of our nation. The rights of all races, religions will be defended.
“Secondly, Islam as a religion, respects other faiths, and I hope, let us not have insults between religions, because before this, before the 14th GE, this didn’t happen,” he said referring to the 14th general election last year.
“No need to worry,” he said, adding that there would be no elements which would not touch on the other ethnicities way of life and interests.
“Can. I will still defend,” he said, when asked for a guarantee.
Last week, Umno and PAS finally signed their joint charter at the Himpunan Penyatuan Ummah 2019, which for the first time saw a sea of supporters from both parties flooding the Umno headquarters here.
