 I’ve always had my doubt on PAS. I think anything based on religion will cause problem. So, this kind of statement only serves to alienate people from PAS. DAP will also suffer since people will start to question DAP.

To avoid Pakatan Rakyat from becoming another BN, PAs should not lead. It consists of Muslim-Malays, just like UMNO in BN. And we have seen how BN works. Its better for a multiracial party to lead Pakatan Rakyat.
