Mat Sabu jabs PAS for backing MCA after previous vote Muslim call

TG PIAI POLLS | Amanah president Mohamad Sabu took a jab at his old party PAS tonight for their support of MCA in the Tanjung Piai by-election.

This is because during the Cameron Highlands by-election 10 months ago, PAS had called on Muslim voters to back BN because the candidate was a Muslim.

"In Cameron Highlands, they (PAS) said don't vote for non-Malays, non-Muslims as we need more Muslims in Parliament.

"But in Tanjung Piai, they said vote for the non-Muslim. I'm not sure what kind of party this is, they have no principles at all," Mohamad said at a Pakatan Harapan ceramah in Pekan Nanas, Pontian, last night.

PAS and MCA make odd bedfellows as the two were often in opposition with each other.

MCA's candidate Wee Jeck Seng said the party is consistent in its stance against PAS' plans to amend Act 355 to allow for stricter syariah criminal punishments.

However, PAS President Hadi Awang had dismissed Wee's statement as a "personal opinion" and that it was working with the party and not an individual.

Meanwhile, Mohamad also took a shot at PAS for backing MCA instead of its own Gagasan Sejahtera coalition ally, Berjasa.

"They left Berjasa [...] their friends! They left them because they want to follow bossku (Najib Abdul Razak)

"This is what happens when you have no principles, so I hope the Chinese here will reject BN on the 16th (polling day)," he said.

Mohamad, who is also defence minister, was dressed in his ministerial uniform when he spoke at the ceramah in front of the Jiayibei restaurant in Pekan Nanas.

About 50 people were in the restaurant at the time of the ceramah, some of them dressed in Harapan and party colours.

Besides Mohamad, Johor DAP chief Liew Chin Tong - who is also deputy defence minister - also spoke at the ceramah.

After the ceramah, Liew was confronted by a middle-aged man who berated the minister for not listening to him, before walking away.

He declined to tell the media what he was angry about, but onlookers claimed he was not happy with one of Liew's responses to his questions.

Liew did not comment on what transpired. - Mkini
