PAS tak perlu masuk larangan judi dalam manifesto, kata Sanusi

Kedah Menteri Besar Sanusi Nor has stated that the Islamic Fundamentalist Party (PAS) does not need to include a ban on gambling in their manifesto because it is already clearly prohibited in Islamic principles and party constitution. PAS's Islamic charter clearly opposes gambling as a means of promoting Islamic values within the nation.

"PAS's charter is Islam, its call is Allahuakhbar, and within Islam, gambling is forbidden," explained Sanusi to Sinar Harian. The Kedah government is currently awaiting further legislative steps in case a betting venue operator seeks compensation in court, and they will oppose such a move.
