Hadi's walking stick fetches RM16,500 at Pas fundraiser

A wooden walking stick belonging to Pas president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang fetched RM16,500 at an auction during the party's Melaka Charity Dinner. The kemuning walking stick, bearing the initials TGHH, was put up for auction to raise funds for Pas election machinery ahead of the Melaka state election. The auction was held at the Pas Melaka Charity Dinner, with the walking stick's starting bid set at RM2,500.

The winning bidder was former Malaysian Mount Everest climber and Pas Lembah Pantai division committee member Datuk Muhamad Muqharabbin Mokhtarrudin, who purchased the walking stick for RM16,500. Hadi later handed the walking stick to Muhamad Muqharabbin, who joined Pas in June.
