I am very intrigued by the speech of the Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Razak, in Kedah yesterday that PAS had been bullied by DAP in Pakatan Rakyat – that “PAS has had enough of DAP, it was bullied when it was with DAP, so much so it gave up and ran away”.
Najib said despite their differences of opinion, the government under UMNO has its principles of struggle and PAS sees the UMNO struggle as leaning towards the importance of Muslim dignity which makes UMNO likable to PAS.
I will reserve comment on whether UMNO is upholding the dignity of Muslims and Islam with a pink diamond and other precious jewellery items turning Malaysia overnight into a “global kleptocracy”, or whether the PAS leadership has embraced these kleptocratic developments as marks of Islamic dignity and leadership.
For the moment, I seek clarification on Najib’s speech that PAS has severed its ties with DAP after it was bullied by DAP.
This is totally news to me.
I know of “bully stories” in Pakatan Rakyat but I have never heard about PAS being bullied by DAP, and I will like to hear about them.
Did Najib concoct the story that PAS was bullied by DAP, creating fake news and false information, or had the PAS leaders run to him and cried on his shoulders to complain that PAS had been bullied by DAP in Pakatan Rakyat?
Let the stories come into the light of day instead of hiding in the closets.
Let Najib and Hadi clarify what the Prime Minister said in Kedah yesterday, or were there other PAS leaders who had complained to Najib?
