DAP sedang ‘dihukum rakyat’, pegawai Hadi ramal nasib sama di Melaka, Sarawak
Syahir Sulaiman berkata, trend penolakan terhadap DAP berlaku secara 'organik', tanpa dipengaruhi Presiden PAS Hadi Awang.
PAS President's Office Spokesman Syahir Sulaiman stated that the Malaysian Chinese Association (DAP)'s accusations that PAS is being "judged by the people" are unfounded, as they claim the opposition party is facing a similar fate in Melaka and Sarawak. Syahir emphasized that this trend of rejecting DAP, particularly among Malays and Bumiputras in Sabah and Sarawak, is organic and not influenced by PAS President Hadi Awang's writings or instructions.
"DAP has now been and is being judged by the people, rejected in Sabah, ousted in Johor, and in a precarious position in Negeri Sembilan. The same fate awaits DAP in Melaka and Sarawak," he added. DAP can only be saved through people's votes, Syahir asserted, in a statement criticizing some Malaysian DAP leaders' reactions to a recent Hadi article deemed offensive to the party.
Four Malaysian DAP leaders were previously reported to challenge Hadi, explaining why their party is not considered a threat when both worked together in Pakatan Rakyat (PR). The issue arose from DAP Deputy Chairman Syahredzan Johan, Young Public Relations Officer Syefura Othman, Senior Central Committee Member Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali, and Bukit Bendera MP Syerleena Abdul Rashid, all responding to Hadi's article titled Islam Nation and its Relations with Non-Islam.
Syahir further explained that both PAS and DAP have long been rival political entities criticizing each other's ideology, reputation, and credibility, but the people ultimately decide their acceptance. If Hadi's statements are deemed an attack on public safety, Syahir said PAS is ready to cooperate with authorities. "Recently, PAS President was taken into custody by Bukit Aman following several police reports concerning his article 'PAS Mind,' which is considered offensive to DAP.
PAS President always gives good cooperation, and he is ready to be questioned in court if there is evidence and charges against him," he said. In this regard, Syahir denounced a Malaysian DAP assemblyman's call for Hadi to resign from public space as disrespectful and threatening, claiming it poses a danger to his safety. Syahir stressed that Malaysian DAP leaders' accusations will not undermine PAS in continuing its political struggle.
"The people now no longer care about what you defend. We PAS people are also deeply hurt by all the accusations and slanders thrown at us," he concluded.
