Tak perlu PRN Terengganu, Tuan Ibrahim jawab Tok Mat

PAS Deputy President Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Mat maintains that there is no need to hold a Terengganu PRN following Umno Deputy President Mohamad Hasan's call to do so, as the state government's current stability negates the necessity. He argues that the state government's excellent performance provides a strong reason not to burden the public with the costs of a PRN and related political pressures.

Tuan Ibrahim asserts that electoral polls are not a measure of political commitment or allegiance but rather a mandate from the people. He defends the formula utilized in Negeri Sembilan, where retained seats are maintained while targeting unoccupied seats. Tuan Ibrahim further contends that dissolving Parliament is a more appropriate course of action than holding a PRN to secure a fresh mandate from the people.

He notes that the BN, GRS, and GPS are currently in control of the ball, and the key is to manage the diverse elements to confront any potential threats. Tuan Ibrahim comments on Mohamad Hasan's call for a Terengganu poll to test PAS's commitment to Malay unity and prove the party's commitment to political understanding. He remarks that when Umno lost the PRN Terengganu and failed to win any seats from the 32 contested DUN seats, a similar formula could serve as a model for Malay unity in the run-up to PRU16.
