Critical Thoughts

When I read this news, I breathed a real huge sigh of relief. I was already prepared for the worst should the decision go the other way and PAS, for some strange and bizarre reason, decides to form a pact with the United Melaun National Organisation, or in short U.M.N.O. In fact, I was already contemplating leaving the party should my worst fears be realised and PAS abandons its principles and work with this assabiyyah/secularist/rasuah party.

Pas has rejected any coalition government with Umno or the Barisan Nasional at both state or federal level, party president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang said today, ending the controversial unity talks with its ideological nemesis that have rocked both the ruling and opposition coalitions.

“The issue of Umno’s offer to Pas therefore does not arise,” Abdul Hadi said after a rare joint meeting between Pas’s central working committee and its highest decision-making body, the Majlis Syura Ulamak (religious scholars consultative council).

Kudos goes to the party leadership for their wise decision on the matter. The time for us is nigh and we are closing on Putrajaya. I can feel it.
