Prime Minister Najib Razak today urged PAS to leave the Pakatan Rakyat coalition as only DAP is reaping benefits from three-member opposition coalition.
He said that the PAS-DAP cooperation is only benefitting the DAP and this could be clearly seen in the just-concluded Sarawak state election where PAS worked very hard but it was the DAP which won.
"In Terangganu, we see posters captioned "PAS ganti UMNO" (PAS replaces Umno) but in reality it's "DAP ganti PAS" (DAP replaces PAS)," he said.
According to Najib, PAS should get out of Pakatan and shift its attention elsewhere.
“It did not matter if the party (PAS) did not want to join the BN,” he said.
Najib said DAP was the dominant force in Pakatan and its two other partners - PAS and PKR - were playing second fiddle to it.
"We see in a number of issues DAP will object if they do not fit into their ideology. So if they were to form the government, they might not be able to agree on major issues," he said.
The prime minister said if PAS wanted to champion Islam, DAP was not the right partner to do this.
“What I want to say is that in the Pakatan coalition now, only the DAP is benefitting."
