PAS: Expect nine states to come under PR


(Harakah Daily) – In a sign of confidence that the Barisan Nasional hegemony would end after the coming general election, PAS election director Dr Hatta Ramli has predicted that nine states would fall to Pakatan Rakyat.

Hatta argued that this scenario was the real reason behind prime minister Najib Razak’s ‘delay tactic’ in announcing parliament’s dissolution.

Yesterday, the Prime Minister’s Office strongly denied a rumour that the parliament was dissolved, paving the way for the much-awaited polls.

Describing the delay as unprecedented, Hatta said the public’s mood for change was apparent when there was a sense of relief at the news of dissolution.

“That’s why when they got the news (about parliament dissolution) yesterday, they felt relieved. Then all were disappointed when it did not happen,” Hatta told Harakahdaily.

The Kuala Krai member of parliament said the people should not be faulted for spreading such rumour as the wait has been too long.

Meanwhile, PAS deputy Murshidul Am Haron Din ticked off Najib over the delay in dissolving the parliament.

“Najib’s action in not announcing the date of election is hurting the people,” said Haron, who said the ‘guessing game’ affected people’s lives.
