Umno is sure to fall, says Nik Aziz


(The Star) KOTA BARU: PAS spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat has predicted that Umno is doomed because its practices and policies are against Islam.

He said Umno would have better chances of survival if it competed against another secular party.

Umno was against Islam as the main thrust of its policy was to champion the cause of the Malays, not Islam, he said.

“Umno is sure to die and it is only a matter of time before this happens.

“Umno made the biggest mistake by championing a policy that only offers worldly rewards,” Nik Abdul Aziz told reporters after launching a donation drive to build a RM7mil mosque at Bandar Baru Tunjong, a new Islamic-concept township, here, yesterday.

Nik Abdul Aziz, who is also Kelantan Mentri Besar, was asked to comment on the latest posting by former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad in his blog that Umno and Barisan Nasional were likely to share the same fate as Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party, which ruled the country since World War II and was defeated by the Democratic Party of Japan in the recent general election.

Dr Mahathir also said the election result followed the trend of many political parties that had struggled and achieved independence that had disappeared.
