IS HADI DUMB OR A TROJAN: Why does he keep falling into Umno’s trap - Zairil

IS HADI DUMB OR A TROJAN: Why does he keep falling into Umno’s trap - Zairil
PAS should know better than to trust Umno which has repeatedly betrayed the opposition party, a DAP lawmaker said today, asking why the party's president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang continued to pursue collaboration with its political enemy over enforcing hudud or the Islamic penal code in Kelantan.
Bukit Bendera MP Zairil Khir Johari said that after being repeatedly duped by Umno, PAS should be more cautious and avoid making the mistakes of the past.
He said PAS under Hadi was turning to its political enemy to safeguard personal interests, and this was unfortunate for the party's members and Malaysians who were hoping for change.
"Does he see hudud as the only means to save him in the upcoming muktamar, given that there is no other success story to rely on?" Zairil asked.
The muktamar, or party annual general assembly, will be held in June and for the first time will see the president's post being challenged.
Zairil was commenting on a news report quoting Hadi as saying that PAS should negotiate with Umno when invited, in order to ensure the implementation of hudud law in Kelantan.
Hadi said he had little choice but to accept Umno's offer to discuss hudud, and had set aside views that the ruling Malay party might have ulterior motives in offering to collaborate with PAS.
“Umno wants to cooperate with us, then we cooperate. Whether or not they are sincere, let Allah decide," Hadi was reported as saying.
But Zairil, who is also DAP's national assistant secretary, said Hadi was departing from clear principles held by former PAS leaders such as Uztaz Fadzil Noor and Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat.
"They were always firm, clear and sincere in politics and on the issue of relations with Umno, they were both always warning to stay away from the cunning ruling party," Zairil said in a statement today.
The DAP lawmaker said that Hadi was not new to politics in Malaysia and should know that Umno only pandered to PAS when the ruling party was desperate.
He added that Umno had in fact blocked the implementation of hudud in 1993.
Hadi would also know that Umno had cheated and almost buried PAS in the 1970s when the Islamist party became part of Barisan Nasional's unity government, Zairil added.
He also asked why Hadi did not consider the fact that Umno had never previously shown interest in implementing hudud in Kelantan when they controlled the state with a two-thirds majority.
He added that the Umno president himself had avoided stating his stand on hudud, while other ministers had outright rejected it.
“So the question is, why is Hadi so eager to promote unity with Umno after being betrayed repeatedly?” – TMI
