PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang and the party’s top leadership will be present at its official Hari Raya Aidilfitri open house in Alor Setar, Kedah on Saturday.
The May 6 event comes a week after Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim kicked off his official open house tour in the capital of the PAS-controlled state.
Kedah PAS commissioner Ahmad Yahya said the event is open to all and welcomed those from other states as well.
“Come in droves, regardless of whether you are a PAS member, supporter, or without a party, including friends from Perikatan Nasional (PN), to join in the celebration,” he said.
Speaking to Harakah, he added that the event would start at noon at the Kedah PAS complex.
Last Saturday, more than 10,000 people attended Putrajaya’s open house. Also present were state ruler Sultan Sallehuddin Sultan Badlishah and Kedah Menteri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor.
The night before, Kedah Pakatan Harapan organised a separate event attended by Anwar and featured popular singers Siti Nurhaliza and Amy Search.
Anwar is scheduled to hold five other open houses, including in the PAS-ruled states of Terengganu and Kelantan.
On Saturday, the prime minister will be attending the open house in Penang. Following this, he would be in Negeri Sembilan for a similar event. The finale of Anwar’s open house tour would take place in Selangor on May 14.
Anwar’s political rivals have accused him of using the open house to campaign for the upcoming state elections in the six states.
The Prime Minister's Office claimed that the Malaysia Madani Aidilfitri open house would strengthen the relationship between the federal government and state governments. - Mkini
