KUALA TERENGGANU, Oct 13 (Bernama) -- PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul
Hadi Awang today reiterated that the party had gained a lot through its
partnership with the DAP.
He said the cooperation with DAP had helped PAS gain support from non-Malays which resulted in the party getting to administer two states in the federation.
"Through our close cooperation with the DAP, we also got to administer Perak (before the Opposition pact lost the state to the Barisan Nasional (BN)). In fact, we also had gained when we were cooperating with the BN before we pulled out of the ruling coalition (at the Federal level) in 1978," he told reporters after delivering a talk at Maahad Tahfiz Tok Jiring in Kampung Tok Jiring here.
Yesterday, PAS' spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat had said PAS needed the DAP to secure support among non-Malays in the upcoming 13th general election.
Meanwhile, asked to comment on Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak's statement yesterday that the opposition's shadow cabinet was just a ploy to confuse the people for political gain, Abdul Hadi said PAS did not need this (shadow cabinet) to increase its political strength.
