Hadi tawar Azmin sertai PAS bentuk kerajaan bersama UMNO, dakwa AJK PAS Pusat...
Mesyuarat Jawatankuasa PAS Pusat semalam dikejutkan pengakuan presiden parti Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang yang beliau menawarkan Timbalan Presiden PKR Mohamed Azmin Ali menyertai PAS bersama beberapa rakannya bagi membentuk kerajaan bersama di Selangor.
Namun, tawaran itu kemudiannya ditolak Azmin.
Menurut seorang AJK PAS Pusat yang menyertai mesyuarat semalam, Hadi mengesahkan perkara itu setelah ditanya oleh ahli Parlimen Sepang, Mohamad Hanipa Maidin tentang perkara itu.
Ia diikuti pertengkaran hangat antara Hadi dan Hanipa.
AJK PAS Pusat itu mengesahkan kepada The Malaysian Insider pengakuan Hadi itu ekoran tersebarnya maklumat dalam laman sosial kononnya PAS menawarkan jawatan menteri besar kepada Azmin untuk membolehkan kerjasama dibuat dengan Adun PAS, Umno dan Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim bagi membentuk kerajaan.
Menurut sebaran itu, isu itu bermula dalam mesyuarat semalam apabila seorang AJK PAS Pusat bertanya kepada presiden adakah benar perkhabaran beliau dan Setiausaha Agung Datuk Mustafa Ali mengadakan pertemuan dengan Azmin.
Presiden mengatakan perkhabaran itu benar.
"Kalau PKR boleh curi wakil rakyat PAS maka PAS pun boleh berbuat perkara yang sama," kata Hadi, menurut sebaran itu.
AJK yang sama bertanya lagi isi kandungan perbincangan dengan Azmin, lalu dijawab yang Azmin diajak menyertai PAS bersama dua atau tiga orang lagi Adun PKR.
AJK yang sama menyambung pertanyaan, “Kalau dicampur PAS yang 13 orang dengan Azmin dan 2 orang Adun PKR, bilangan cuma 16 orang. Bagaimana hendak mengadakan kerajaan?”
Belum sempat Hadi menjawab, seorang AJK lain mencelah dan bertanya adakah presiden bersetuju bekerja sama dengan Umno.
"Lantas presiden menyatakan persetujuan, malahan presiden memberikan alasan menjaga Melayu sebagai asas perpaduan," kata sebaran itu yang disahkan kebenaran sebahagian besar isi kandungannya oleh AJK PAS Pusat itu kepada The Malaysian Insider.
Azmin ketika ditemui wartawan semasa Kongres PKR hujung minggu lepas mengakui beliau ada berbincang dengan Hadi sehari dua sebelum itu.
Antara kandungannya, kata Azmin, adalah mengenai pilihan raya kecil Pengkalan Kubor.
Sebelum ini, The Malaysian Insider melaporkan, Hadi berkeras dalam mesyuarat itu yang Presiden PKR Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail tidak boleh dicalonkan sebagai menteri besar Selangor kerana dia wanita dan kerana dia juga tidak layak.
Tindakan Hadi ini jauh berbeza dari sikapnya dalam mesyuarat 17 Ogos lepas apabila beliau sendiri yang mencadangkan nama Dr Wan Azizah dan Azmin untuk dipersembahkan kepada Sultan Selangor sebagai calon menteri besar Selangor.
Pencalonan Azmin pula ditolak oleh 13 Adun PAS Selangor yang masih tinggal selepas dua dari mereka menyokong pencalonan Dr Wan Azizah.
Ekoran tindakan dua Adun PAS itu, Khalid hilang peluang untuk kekal sebagai menteri besar kerana bilangan penentang beliau membentuk majoriti iaitu 30 dari 56 kerusi dalam DUN Selangor.
Saari Sungib (Hulu Klang) dan Hasnul Baharudin (Morib) berpecah dari kelompok PAS apabila mengisytiharkan sokongan mereka kepada Dr Wan Azizah atas dasar untuk menyelamatkan kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat.
Dalam sidang media selepas mesyuarat AJK PAS Pusat semalam, Mustafa berkata, mesyuarat mengambil keputusan menyerahkan kepada kebijaksanaan Sultan Selangor melantik menteri besar yang baru. – tmi
Hadi ‘admits offering Azmin MB post’ in unity government with UMNO...
PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang yesterday told a stunned central committee meeting that he had offered Azmin Ali to join the Islamist party with a few of his PKR members to form a unity government with Umno in Selangor.
But the meeting was told that PKR deputy president Azmin had turned down the offer.
A PAS central committee member, who attended yesterday's meeting, said Hadi confirmed this when Sepang MP Hanipa Maidin asked him about it, which led to a heated exchange between the two.
The PAS central committee member told The Malaysian Insider that Hadi confirmed he offered the menteri besar position to Azmin in order for a pact to be formed between PAS assemblymen, Umno and embattled MB Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim.
"If PKR can steal PAS assemblymen, then PAS can also do the same," Hadi had allegedly said.
The same PAS member then asked what was the meeting with Azmin about, to which Hadi said that he had asked the Bukit Antarabangsa assemblyman to join the party along with two or three other PKR assemblymen.
Hadi was also asked how the state government with Umno was to be formed, as 13 PAS assemblymen along with Azmin and two other PKR members would only make 16 assemblyman in the 56-seat state assembly.
Before Hadi could answer, another PAS member asked him if he was agreeable with cooperating with Umno.
The PAS president said "yes", adding that it was to protect the Malays.
This was revealed in a Facebook message which was being circulated, which the PAS central committee member confirmed to The Malaysian Insider.
Azmin, when met by reporters at the recent PKR Congress, had admitted that he had a discussion with the PAS president a couple of days before that. (It was later confirmed to be August 20).
One of the things they had talked about, Azmin said, was about the Pengkalan Kubor by-election.
The Malaysian Insider had reported that in the central committee meeting yesterday, Hadi had insisted that Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail be removed as a candidate for the MB post, as she was a woman and was also not qualified.
Hadi's stand yesterday contradicted his earlier statement when he himself had suggested Dr Wan Azizah and Azmin to be presented to the Sultan of Selangor as candidates for the MB post.
Azmin, however, was rejected by the 13 PAS assemblymen at the meeting yesterday.
Selangor PAS reps Saari Sungib (Hulu Klang) and Hasnul Baharudin (Morib) had broken away from the party's consensus to declare their support for Dr Wan Azizah in order to save the Pakatan Rakyat state government.
In a press conference after the PAS central committee meeting yesterday, Mustafa told reporters that PAS has decided to leave it to the wisdom of the Sultan of Selangor to determine the Selangor menteri besar position. – tmi
'3 sekawan' PAS masih berteka-teki...
Semalam bekas naib presiden Salahuddin Ayub dan bekas ketua penerangan Datuk Mahfuz Omar sementara bekas AJK PAS Pusat Mohd Taufek Abdul Ghani diumum dilantik ke jawatan tersebut.
Setakat ini, ketiga-ketiga pemimpin PAS itu mahu menunggu surat pelantikan terlebih dahulu sebelum membuat sebarang keputusan.Salahuddin menyifatkan keputusan menerima atau menolak pelantikan sebagai ahli jawatankuasa PAS pusat sebagai "perhitungan hidup mati karier" beliau dalam PAS.
Walaupun telah menerima surat tersebut, beliau yang lebih 30 tahun bergelumang dalam bidang politik menganggap ia satu episod baru dalam hidupnya untuk membuat keputusan penting selepas gagal mempertahankan jawatannya sebelum ini.
Sementara
itu, Mahfuz yang juga MP Pokok Sena pula berkata setakat semalam,
beliau belum menerima surat pelantikan itu dan akan menjawabnya selepas
menerimanya kelak.Mahfuz sebelum ini berkata, beliau berasa seronok selepas tidak memegang jawatan dalam kepimpinan tertinggi PAS kerana boleh memberi tumpuan kepada parlimen dan kawasannya.
Manakala Taufek yang pernah menjadi pesuruhjaya PAS Negeri Sembilam turut memberikan jawapan yang sama dengan Salahuddin dan Mahfuz, sebelum membuat sebarang keputusan.
"Saya tunggu surat lantikan dulu baru komen," katanya ketika dihubungi Malaysiakini hari ini.
Semalam,
Timbalan Presiden PAS Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man mengumumkan
pelantikan meraka dan pihaknya masih belum ada sebarang penolakan
daripada mereka yang dilantik.Dalam muktamar lalu, kumpulan progresif dalam PAS tewas di tangan kumpulan proulama untuk menempatkan diri dalam jawatankuasa pusat PAS ketika semua rakannya kecundang.
Ekoran kekalahan itu, barisan kepimpinan yang tewas telah membuat satu majlis yang dinamakan himpunan 'Jasamu Dikenang'.
Antara lain bekas timbalan presiden PAS Mohamad Sabu membayangkan beliau dan rakan-rakannya mungkin mahu mencari wadah baru termasuk menubuhkan parti politik baru.- mk
A muddle called Hadi Awang...
PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang said that his party is willing to work with all groups except what he called “chauvinists”.
He left unsaid the type of chauvinists his party would avoid.
The query is not disingenuous: there can be religious chauvinists just as surely as there are racial chauvinists, though the pejorative term for the religious variety is - precisely - supremacists.
The terms are different but they refer to the same disposition of wanting to feel and behave arrogant and superior.Not the superiority stemming from an array of fact, transparently assembled and cogently argued; rather, it is the superiority of brass assertion, like the decision of the ulama wing of PAS to cut ties to the DAP and disallowing the motion for debate by the floor at their muktamar three weeks ago.
Nothing in the recent conduct of the major political parties in the country beats for hauteur that action of PAS’ ulama wing, except perhaps for Umno vice-president Zahid Hamidi’s instruction to the police to “shoot first and ask questions later” with respect to criminal suspects, or his pronouncement of an anathema on Shiite Muslims.
Like Zahid, Hadi Awang cares little for nuances: the ideologically driven mind do not bother with shades of grey; they see the world in monochromes.
It prefers to paint with broad strokes, as when Hadi said that Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak need not resign over the IMDB issue because there were several similar mishandlings of public funds in the past over which no sitting PM resigned.
Shortly after this backhanded endorsement for Najib to continue in office was pronounced, Hadi (photo) told the PAS muktamar that the IMDB issue was symptomatic of all that was wrong with Umno-BN rule.How does one explain the gulf here between support for Najib to continue as PM even after it has become clear that the IMDB issue represents a colossal misjudgment, and the implied call for terminating Umno-BN’s stay in power for reason of its advanced decay?
One way is to see the first opinion as having been vented extemporaneously by Hadi at a press conference where the temptation to voice fragmentary and unpremeditated opinions is high, and the second opinion must be viewed as coming from his speechwriters via a presidential address by the chief.
The first opinion reflects Hadi in the raw; the second opinion is the gloss that his minders provided him.
Hadi voiced his opinion about PAS being willing to work with all except chauvinists after the first central committee meeting yesterday of the newly-elected committee following the elections at the party’s 61st muktamar in Kuala Selangor three weeks ago.
‘Willing to work with anyone at all?’
These days one must be wary when PAS says it is willing to work with anyone at all, though in this latest instance, it has entered a caveat against “chauvinists”.
Before the last general election in May 2013, PAS had intrigued Malaysian voters with its slogan ‘PAS for all’.
After having given that assurance, PAS, in the aftermath of GE13, proceeded to move to implement hudud in Kelantan on the grounds that the Islamic penal code was a longtime objective of the party.
No
amount of pleas that hudud represented a radical departure from Pakatan
Rakyat’s Common Policy Framework on which the coalition fought GE13
made any diference to the unilateralists of PAS.Not only was the party adamant on implementing hudud in Kelantan, it staged a divisive internal election process in which candidates from the progressive wing of the party were wiped out, their rivals from the conservative flank winning all key posts.
It was a wipeout that bodes ill for the future of Pakatan Rakyat, the opposition coalition that had grouped the Islamic party with the avowedly secular DAP and the mildly Islamist PKR.
The PAS progressives were staunchly pro-Pakatan while the conservatives were ambivalent about the opposition alliance, formed in the wake of pivotal general election of March 2008 where the opposition triad denied the ruling BN its traditional two-thirds majority in Parliament.
Sceptics had warned that Pakatan was a house built on cards, the ideological differences between a theocratic PAS and a secularist DAP being too wide to bridge.
Their
reservations were confirmed by the determination of the Kelantan
chapter of PAS to go ahead in March with passing legislation that, once
the requisite federal warrants were obtained, would enable the
implementation of hudud in Kelantan.DAP’s unwavering opposition to the move pushed the relationship between the conservatives of PAS and the DAP secularists to breaking point.
The relationship became untenable once PAS adopted a resolution without debate to cut ties with the DAP at its muktamar.
DAP called the resolution the death knell of Pakatan, but Hadi has argued the point that Pakatan continues to exist because both PAS and PKR have not left the calition.
Rubbing the wound of its separation from DAP raw, Hadi has used the term “chauvinists” for groups with whom the Islamic party disdains to work with.
Obviously, Hadi was referring to the DAP whom he regards as racial chauvinists.
One wonders if he had checked out the applicability of this term to the DAP now that national literary laureate A Samad Said has joined the DAP.
But such nuances are only for the carefully appraising, not for broad brushing ideologues.- Terence Netto,mk
Mat Sabu, jangan tinggalkan kami...
Timbalan Presiden PAS Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man mahu Mohamad Sabu, yang tewas dalam pemilihan supaya "memperkukuhkan parti" selepas membayangkan akan mencari "wadah baru" bagi meneruskan perjuangan.
"(PAS) harap dia akan kukuhkan parti," katanya dalam sidang media di Ibu Pejabat PAS Kuala Lumpur.
Tuan Ibrahim menjawab soalan mengenai kenyataan Mohamad yang mungkin mencari "wadah baru" bersama pemimpin progresif dalam program Malam ‘Jasamu Dikenang’ di Muar baru-baru ini, selepas ditolak dalam pemilihan parti.
Mengulas lanjut mengenai program itu, Tuan Ibrahim berkata PAS tidak menghalang mana-mana pemimpin terlibat dalam apa jua aktiviti asalkan ia tidak terkeluar dari landasan parti.
"Bila nak buat, kita tidak ada hak untuk larang. Aktiviti kita mesti jangan keluar dari parti,” katanya selepas mesyuarat Jawatankuasa PAS pusat.
Dalam program itu, Mohamad membayangkan beliau dan rakan-rakannya mungkin mencari wadah bagi memulakan perjuangan baru termasuk membentuk parti politik, selepas mengadakan perbincangan dengan semua pihak.
Selain itu, beliau atau mesra dipanggil Mat Sabu dan rakan yang lain boleh bergerak sebagai anggota biasa atau melalui NGO dan keputusannya bakal diketahui selepas sambutan Hari Raya Aidilfitri.
Dalam sidang media itu juga, Tuan Ibrahim juga berkata dalam mesyuarat tersebut turut dibangkitkan supaya jawatankuasa membincangkan mengenai usul memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP.
Bagaimanapaun, katanya, perkara itu ada dibincangkan tetapi usul untuk memutuskan hubungan dengan DAP ataupun tidak, akan diputuskan dalam mesyuarat Majlis Syura Ulama.
"Kita juga bincang tentang usul (putus hubungan dengan DAP) kerana ia akan diangkat dalam Majlis Syura Ulama. Ini baru mesyuarat pertama, selepas itu serah pada Majlis Syura.
"Itu usul Majlis Syura, (jadi perbincangan hari ini) tidak ada kena mengena dengan DAP," kata Tuan Ibrahim.
Beliau berkata Majlis Syura Ulama bermesyuarat petang ini.
Turut hadir dalam sidang media itu turut dihadiri Naib Presiden PAS Idris Ahmad dan Setiausaha Agung Datuk Takiyuddin Hassan.- mk
'Please don't go', Tuan Ibrahim sings to Mat Sabu...
Newly minted PAS deputy Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said whatever "new platform" his defeated rival wishes to undertake should be done within PAS.
He said his predecessor Mohamad Sabu should instead work to strengthen the Islamic party.
"Whatever he wants to do, we have no right to stop him. But our activities shouldn't go outside of the party," said Tuan Ibrahim at a press confernce at PAS' headquarters in Kuala Lumpur today.
"We hope he will strengthen the party," he said when asked about Mohamad's (left) announcement of a new platform for defeated PAS progressives.He was speaking after the party's new central committee's maiden meeting today.
Tuan Ibrahim added it was raised during the meeting that the motion about severing ties with DAP should be discussed.
He said any decision would be made by the syura council.
The latter is to meet this evening, but it is unclear if the matter will be raised then.
PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang later told reporters at the PAS headquarters that the syura council will only discuss the split with DAP once spiritual leader Haron Din returns after performing the umrah.
He is expected to return to Malaysia on June 30.
In the PAS elections last month the progressives faction was completely wiped out from the party leadership with the exception of Mazlan Aliman.
The latter subsequently quit his central committee post in solidarity with his fallen colleagues, who have since been discussing new directions that do not exlude the formation of a new party.- mk
PAS sedang kehilangan sokongan daripada ahli parti yang kritikal terhadap Hadi ...
Kepimpinan beliau mungkin disokong oleh ulama dalam PAS tetapi presiden parti Abdul Hadi Awang tidak menujukkan contoh baik melalui tindakan (atau yang tidak dilakukan beliau) dan kenyataan kontroversi yang sering dikeluarkan.
Selain tidak hadir mesyuarat penting presiden Pakatan Rakyat dan kemudian membatalkan kuputusannya, untuk kali kedua sejak beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini, pendirian Hadi yang menuduh untuk kali kedua memfitnah individu lain dalam ucapannya - tindakan yang dalam Islam dikatakan sebagai ‘memakan darah daging saudara sendiri’.
Kali ini, calon presiden PAS yang tewas Ahmad Awang dilaporkan berkata beliau menimbangkan tindakan undang-undang ke atas pihak yang memfitnah beliau ketika pemilihan parti, termasuklah Hadi.
Beliau dilaporkan sebagai berkata bahawa walaupun beliau tidak menyesal tewas kepada Hadi dalam pemilihan itu, fitnah yang dilemparkan kepadanya telah mencetuskan keretakan dalam PAS.
“Saya sedang mempertimbangkannya (menyaman), termasuklah presiden yang melabel saya sebagai calon DAP.
“Saya tidak dapat menerima fitnah ini dan mahu membersihkan nama saya,” kata Ahmad yang hanya berjaya memperoleh 25 peratus daripada jumlah undi.
Sebelum pemilihan bermula, Ahmad dilihat sebagai memimpin kelompok progresif pro-Pakatan Rakyat untuk menentang satu-lawan-satu ke atas kem ulama dikepalai Hadi.
Malahan, sesetengah ulama telah pergi sejauh dengan mencipta senarai ‘cai’ atau menu mengundi kepada perwakilan yang mengundi, menyenaraikan calon bertanding dalam kedua-dua kelompok Hadi atau Ahmad dan berjaya menumpaskan kelompok progresif daripada jawatan tertinggi parti.
Hadi, dalam rujukan kepada Ahmad, sebelum ini telah berkata dalam satu kenyataan yang telah tersebar meluas dalam satu rakaman video bahawa pertandingan presiden parti antara pilihan DAP dan calon PAS.
Walaupun berkata perwakilan bebas untuk membuat pilihan dan terdapat ulama dalam kedua-dua kem, Hadi turut menekankan: “Anda (perwakilan) boleh memilih antara yang dipilih DAP dan yang kita (PAS) mahu.”
Tambahan lagi, bekas bendahari dan pengerusi jawatankuasa pemilihan PAS Asmuni Awi sedang mempertimbangkan mengambil tindakan undang-undang terhadap fitnah ke atas sesetengah orang dalam parti.
Pada masa lalu, Asmuni telah mewakili Hadi apabila beliau berhadapan dengan saman fitnah bernilai RM2 juta daripada bekas calon PKR Bukit Besi Mohd Shamsul bin Mat Amin, difailkan sejurus selepas Pilihan Raya Umum ke-13.
Ketika tempoh berkempen PRU13, Hadi telah mendakwa ketika satu ceramah di Terengganu terdapat calon PKR yang menjular ‘pil kuda’ (methamphetamine) dan beliau gunakannya sebagai alasan untuk PAS membariskan calon mereka sendiri di Bukit Besi dan dua kerusi Dewan Undangan Ngeri yang lain.
Umno akhirnya menang ketiga-tiga kerusi - Bukit Besi, Kota Putera dan Seberang Takir - di mana calon-calon PAS telah bertembung dengan PKR.
Sementara itu, pemilihan parti tahun ini telah digambarkan sebagai “paling kotor” bagi parti Islam itu, hakikat yang diakui bukan saja pemimpin yang tewas jawatan mereka tetapi juga para pentokong dan ahli di akar umbi.
Walaupun dilabel sebagai tidak setia dengan parti, terdapat laporan daripada ahli akar umbi di peringkat bahagian yang keluar parti kerana menzahirkan kekecewaan mereka terhadap pemimpin tertinggi sekarang.
Malahan, hanya pada 20 Jun, diketahui bahawa orang kuat DAP Lim Kit Siang dan Ahli Parlimen Kluang Liew Ching Tong, bersama sasterawan negara A Samad Said - telah berbuka puasa di sebuah rumah di Taman Indah Jaya, Kluang, dan pada masa sama menerima permohonan ahli baru daripada dua orang bekas ahli PAS.
Dengan DAP sendang menembusi kubu kuat tradisional Umno atau PAS, pemerhati mendapati bahawa parti itu sedang memperbaharui cubaan mereka memadam imej ‘cauvinis Cina’ menjelang Pilihan Raya Umum ke-14 kelak.
Dan pada ketika ini, kepimpinan ulama mungkin berfikir bahawa mereka boleh lebih baik tanpa ‘duri dalam daging’ tetapi jika Hadi tidak berwaspada, beliau mungkin menyebabkan PAS kelihangan lebih banyak sokongan daripada ahli parti yang semakin skeptikal dengan kebolehan beliau memimpin dengan tauladan. - Alyaa Alhadjri,theantdaily
Kopi Susu dan Pakatan Rakyat
Three PAS ‘progressives’ named to central committee...
Three “progressive” PAS leaders defeated in party elections have been appointed to the ulama-dominated central committee amidst uncertainty whether they would accept.
Deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said appointment letters had been sent to former information chief Mahfuz Omar, former vice-president Salahuddin Ayub, and former Negeri Sembilan PAS commissioner Mohd Taufek Abdul Ghani.
No one had formally rejected their appointments so far, “therefore, they are considered to have accepted the posts”, Tuan Ibrahim told a press conference here, The Star Online reported.
However Mahfuz denied having received the letter and would not say whether he would accept. “I will answer your question after I receive the letter,” he said, according to the report. Salahuddin and Mohd Taufek could not be reached for comment.
The report, quoting an anonymous source, said it was believed that all three would reject their appointments.
PAS also appointed former secretary-general Mustafa Ali to be the new election director, replacing Dr Hatta Ramli, another member of the “progressive” faction.
Takiyuddin Hassan was appointed secretary-general, former Federal Territories commissioner Mohamad Noor Mohamed treasurer, and Temerloh MP Nasrudin Hassan the new information chief.- fmt
