KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10 — Umno is not against Islamist party PAS’ agenda to unify the Muslim community but is instead opposing its on-and-off ally Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia, Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin said today.
The Umno vice-president accused Bersatu of being established merely to undermine Umno, and inevitably destroy the Malay nationalist party. “[Bersatu’s] strength is superficial. Not built through genuine struggle, but through the most sly and ugly political betrayal syndicate in Malaysian political history,” he said, referring to the role Bersatu’s leaders played in the so-called “Sheraton Move” that resulted in Perikatan Nasional’s formation.He labelled Bersatu as a “traitor” party, contrasting it with Umno which he said is currently focusing to restore its full strength to be the choice of Malay voters.
He said that PAS would continue its efforts to unite the “ummah”, or the Muslim community, which he said requires “commitment” from the Malay-majority parties PAS, Umno and Bersatu.
