PAS will no longer surrender winnable seats, says Sanusi

PAS election chief Sanusi Nor has stated that the party will no longer relinquish winnable seats to other political entities during forthcoming elections. Speaking at the 72nd PAS muktamar in Kelantan, Sanusi emphasized that PAS would identify constituencies where it had the potential to secure victories. He criticized the practice of members dedicating groundwork for rival parties, only for those parties to later field their own candidates.

Sanusi expressed frustration, stating that PAS's growth had been stifled by its members inadvertently aiding opposition parties, leading to PAS's diminished political influence. He urged the party to stop feeling intimidated when negotiating with other parties, reminding members of PAS's historical significance and current strength.

Sanusi also criticized PAS's performance in Johor, where the party's membership and electoral machinery had not expanded despite its desire to contest elections.
