PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man and his Umno counterpart Mohamad Hasan address the unity meeting at the PWTC.
KUALA LUMPUR: On the eve of formalising their pact, PAS and Umno leaders stressed the importance of the Malays uniting, without marginalising the rights of the other races. Umno deputy president Mohamad Hasan said the formal relationship between the two parties showed that the Malays realised they cannot keep fighting among themselves.PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man called on the people to unite in rejecting the Pakatan Harapan government.“We’re not against the Chinese or the Indians. We’re not against the Kadazans or Ibans.
“We don’t get to choose our race … it’s Allah that destines it,” he said during a unity gathering at the Putra World Trade Centre on Friday night. Umno vice-president Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the gathering was a statement of rejection against PH, not just a demonstration of power of the two parties.“I hope this relationship is not only for today or to win the 15th general election to bring down the PH government, but forever,” he said.The gathering, which kicked off on Friday morning, will continue on Saturday, featuring speeches by Umno and PAS presidents Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and Abdul Hadi Awang.
