DAP sedang ‘dihukum rakyat’, pegawai Hadi ramal nasib sama di Melaka, Sarawak

Presiden PAS Syahir Sulaiman expressed his party's belief that DAP is currently facing public condemnation following its electoral losses in several states, and warned of a similar fate for the party in Melaka and Sarawak. The trend of DAP being rejected, particularly among Malays and Bumiputras, including in Sabah and Sarawak, is organic and not influenced by PAS president Hadi Awang's instructions, Syahir stated.

"DAP is now being condemned by the public, rejected in Sabah, ousted in Johor, and devastated in Negeri Sembilan. The same fate awaits DAP in Melaka and Sarawak," he added. Syahir, a Member of Parliament for Bachok, made these remarks in a statement addressing criticisms from some Malay DAP leaders in response to Hadi's recent article, which was alleged to be offensive to the party.

Four DAP leaders had previously contested Hadi, explaining why their party was not considered a threat when they worked together in Pakatan Rakyat (PR). The issue arose from Young Syefura Othman, Assistant Public Relations Officer of DAP, and other prominent figures. Syahir noted that PAS and DAP have long been political rivals criticizing each other's ideology, reputation, and credibility, but the people ultimately decide their acceptance of the two parties.

He further stated that if Hadi's words and writing are considered a threat to public order, PAS president Syahir is ready to cooperate with authorities. "Recently, PAS president was summoned by Bukit Aman following several police reports concerning the article 'Mind of PAS President,' which was deemed offensive to DAP. PAS president is always willing to cooperate and even willing to be questioned in court if there are grounds and allegations against him," he added.

In another statement, Syahir labeled a DAP Melayu Adun's call for Hadi to resign from the public forum as despicable and alarming, and alleged that it posed a threat to the safety of PAS president. He emphasized that criticisms from Malay DAP leaders would not deter PAS from continuing their political struggle. "The public no longer cares about what you hold dear.

We PAS members are deeply offended by all the criticisms and slanders thrown our way," Syahir concluded.
