Umno should make a stand now on PAS's hudud and not pretend to be surprised with the Islamist party's push for the implementation of the Islamic criminal law in Kelantan, says Tun Musa Hitam.
The former deputy prime minister said hudud is not suitable for a country like Malaysia, expressing his disappointment over Umno's slow response on the issue.
"I am disappointed that Umno appeared to be shocked (by PAS's move) and until now have yet to decide on its stance. I have been worried about this for some time," he said in a statement from Cordoba, Spain.
"Umno must take a firm stance. This national issue has a very long implication to the country, both domestically and internationally,"
He said Umno too should not be trying to outdo PAS on this matter by becoming more PAS than the Islamist party.
"Umno should not be trying to out-PAS PAS!", he said.
