Umno's 'Blue Malaysia' agenda aligns with Pas' vision for unity, says Idris Ahmad
KUALA LUMPUR: Pas vice-president Datuk Idris Ahmad says Umno's proposed "Blue Malaysia" agenda broadly aligns with his party's vision for national unity and cooperation.
Pas vice-president Datuk Idris Ahmad stated that Umno's proposed "Blue Malaysia" agenda aligns with the party's vision for national unity and cooperation. He mentioned that Pas already has its own platform for unity and development, known as Wawasan Induk Sejahtera 2051, which shares similarities with the vision proposed by Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
Idris also noted that the assembly was attended to strengthen ties between both parties and emphasize the importance of cooperation in Malaysia's political landscape. Both Umno and Pas are among the parties with strong grassroots bases, and Idris mentioned that cooperation between both parties is already taking place, focusing on building relationships at the community level.
Pas secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan denied claims that the cooperation between Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional was weak, stating that their presence at the assembly was clear. Additionally, Nik Mohamad Abduh Nik Abdul Aziz, son of the late Pas spiritual leader, praised Zahid's speech as convincing and reflecting confidence in achieving greater unity among Muslims.
