(Bernama) - PAS will launch a wing for its 20,000 non-Muslim supporters on Sunday, May 23.
The party's vice-president Salahuddin Ayub said on Monday it was to accommodate the increasing number of non-Muslim supporters who are Chinese, Siamese, Orang Asli and other bumiputera.
He said the wing had its own rules and that its formation, which was recognised by PAS headquarters, was aimed at putting in more non-Muslim candidates in elections.
"Non-Muslims can contest on PAS tickets as this has been done before," he told reporters.
