‘Form cabinet before taking action’
KOTA BARU: Pas has urged Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to finalise his cabinet lineup before taking any “drastic action”, including on the Federal Government’s probe into Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
Pas deputy president Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said the situation could have a negative impact on Malaysia’s image abroad.
“Pas welcomes any investigation or action to be taken against any individual. This is on the condition that it is done fairly and not be based on revenge against any party.
“The new government under Pakatan Harapan must be arranged first. Do not be hasty in launching an investigation and sacking ‘key people’, when even the cabinet has yet to be formed.
“Pas adopts the approach of innocent till proven guilty in a court of law.”
The Kubang Kerian member of parliament said he hoped that PH would fulfil its pledge to provide 20 per cent of oil royalty to Kelantan and Terengganu.
“We hope that the new government is better than Barisan Nasional. The people will judge PH in five years.”
Tuan Ibrahim said the actions of several BN representatives in Sabah and Perak, who crossed over to PH, should serve as a lesson for Pas.
“This should serve as a lesson for Pas to remain strong. Pas has lost before and had aid cut off, but we have to keep faith and not abandon the party.”
