Media Comment by Lim Kit Siang in Petaling Jaya on Monday, 22nd December 2008:  Hukum hudud not Pakatan Rakyat policy Media reports that PAS vice president Datuk Husam Musa has said that PAS will implement hudud if Pakatan Rakyat takes over the Federal Government has created a frenzy of reaction. Hukum hudud is not Pakatan Rakyat policy and it is for Husam to clarify what he actually said. DAP�s stand on the secular character of Malaysian nation and state as agreed in the social contract by our forefathers when Merdeka was achieved 51 years ago remain consistent and unchanged. If unclarified, Husam�s statement would create unease, anxiety and opposition not only among the 11% of the Chinese voters in the critical Kuala Terengganu by-election on January 17 but also among both Malay and non-Malay voters whether in Terengganu or the rest of Malaysia. * Lim Kit Siang,  DAP Parliamentary leader & MP for Ipoh Timor
