The deputy president of Amanah, Datuk Seri Dr Mujahid Yusof Rawa, claims that the campaign for Malay political unity between UMNO and PAS is driven by a desire for power and is not a genuine effort to foster unity. He asserts that UMNO is currently in a desperate situation due to several cases that were exposed through a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI), which was established by the party itself.
Mujahid emphasized that any sincere attempt by UMNO and PAS to promote Malay unity must consider the interests of the broader society and must not compromise the rights of other communities. He argued that a comprehensive concept of unity should be built on national cohesion and the welfare of the people, rather than being used as a political tool whenever a party faces pressure.
Mujahid warned that continuously emphasizing Malay issues during times of political difficulty could diminish the unity agenda to mere political rhetoric.
