PAS Sarawak man confident Ismail Sabri will complete Perikatan govt’s unfinished agenda as PM
MIRI, Aug 19 — All 18 members of Parliament from PAS nominated Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob as their pick for prime minister, to complete the Perikatan Nasional government’s unfinished agenda, said Sarawak PAS commissioner Jofri Jeraiee.
Asked on the rationale, Jofri said: “This is to continue the incomplete agenda of the PN government for the welfare of the people and also to fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.” On PAS Sarawak’s expectations for the state, he hoped the new government remains committed to helping those who are still marginalised and Sarawak will be given priority in the development process.
PAS and Umno are also partners under the Muafakat Nasional charter. Umno’s decision to retract its support for the PN government had led to the resignation of Muhyiddin as prime minister, leading to contenders scrambling to garner sufficient support for the coveted post.
