What is this vision of the party?
Wawasan is not a clone of PAS but has the 'spirit' of PAS. Same but not similar. If I am worried about PAS I will also be worried about Wawasan.
Wawasan, a party formed with PAS's support, aims to complement Perikatan Nasional by broadening its appeal to multi-ethnic Malaysian society. Wawasan's information chief, Wan Ahmad Fayhsal Wan Ahmad Kamil, denied reports that the party was formed because PAS had failed to attract non-Malay support, saying it was meant to work together with PAS to expand PN's reach.
He claimed Wawasan did not intend to replace PAS. Meanwhile, Saifuddin Abdullah, Wawasan's secretary-general, described the party as a "Malaysian party" rather than a multiracial one, sparking debate over the distinction.
