Hadi is providing more reasons everyday why he is unfit to be Prime Minister of plural Malaysia regardless of the number of PAS MPs elected on Nov. 19

There are four candidates to be the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia – Zahid Hamidi the UMNO/Barisan Nasional Chairman, Muhyiddin Yassin the President of Bersatu, Hadi Awang the President of PAS and Anwar Ibrahim the President of Pakatan Harapan.

There is no fifth candidate for the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia – not even Ismail Sabri, although he is the “poster boy” of the UMNO/BN coalition in the 15th General Election.

I do not believe Ismail Sabri himself privately thinks that he is going to be the Prime Minister after the 15th General Election should UMNO/BN win the general election, seeing how his UMNO Ministers were culled and not put up as candidates, and the recent statement by Zahid that it is the unquestioned prerogative of the Yang di Pertuan Agong to decide who is the Prime Minister.

The voting on Polling Day on 19th November will decide who, between Muhyiddin and Hadi, will be the contender for the post of the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia for Perikatan Nasional – depending on whether Bersatu or PAS wins the more parliamentary seats.

As for the Gerakan, I expect all of them to lose in the 15th General Election, the question is how many of the Gerakan candidates will lose their deposits.

But Hadi is providing more reasons every day why he is unfit to be Prime Minister of Malaysia, regardless of the number of PAS MPs elected on Nov. 19.

A Malaysian Prime Minister must be a man of his words and a model of integrity and probity. He cannot be openly spreading lies and untruths,

He accused the DAP of being anti-Malay, anti-Islam and anti-Royalty. Has he got any proof and why he has not produced the proof?

Recently, he made frequent attacks on the DAP, even alleging that the DAP leaders are communist and Godless.

He alleged that Malay leaders contesting on DAP ticket as candidates in the 15th General Election are being used by the DAP to win Malay-Muslim votes.

He said:”I feel worried because many Malay candidates are being used by the DAP.

How can Hadi aspire to be Prime Miniseer when he is prepared to tell lies and does not understand the meaning of ordinary terms?

Does Hadi remember what he said during the Teluk Intan by-election in May 2014?

Hadi had praised Dyana Sofya Mohd Daud, the DAP candidate for the Teluk Intan by-election for making DAP her political party of choice despite being a Malay.

Abdul Hadi had hit back at detractors who have criticised PAS for choosing to partner DAP, saying PAS has more in common with DAP than with Umno.

He said: “We feel that Dyana is brave to be a candidate, more so a DAP candidate.”

Dyana’s detractors have labelled her a “traitor to her race” and an ingrate for joining DAP, especially when her mother herself is an Umno member.

Abdul Hadi reminded PAS members that DAP had helped PAS when the Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition tried to oust the Islamist party from ruling Kelantan during the 1977 Kelantan Emergency.

He said although there are so many things different between DAP and PAS, like what is halal (permissible) and haram (forbidden), alcohol and pork, hudud, the two parties agree with each other in eradicating poverty, cruelty and corruption, among others.

Let Hadi tell Malaysians what happened after the Teluk Intan by-election in 2014, where PAS leadership did a somersault and decided they have more in common with UMNO, supporting Najib Razak and his 1MDB scandal?

Does Islam teach its leadders to tell lies and untruths and to co-operate with those guilty of corruption?

I do not think so. Like all great religions, Islam stands for truth, freedom and justice.

Hadi insults the intelligence and morality of DAP Malay leaders and candidates by alleging that they are used by the Chinese.

For Hadi’s information, in DAP we are all Malaysians, although we are also Malays, Chinese, Indians, Dayaks and Kadazans, or Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus and Christians but nobody makes use of another for his or her own interests.

DAP has produced a leader who had crossed the racial and religious divide to defend the dignity of an underaged Malay girl, paying the price of being jailed for it, in the person of Lim Guan Eng, the former Chief Minister of Penang.

Has PAS produced any leader who had gone to jail for the rights and dignity of a Malay, let alone cross the racial and religious divide to defend the rights and dignity of a Malaysian of another race or religion?

Hadi also does not understand the meaning of “secular”, for the word does not mean anti-religion or Godless, but as entrenched in the Malaysian Constitution and Rukun Negara where Islam is the religion of Malaysia but other religions can be practised freely and in peace.

It is unfortunate that Hadi is trying to interpret “secular” as ‘godless” or “anti-religion” when this has never been the meaning in Malaysia, as it stands for freedom of religion in Malaysia

Hadi accuses DAP leaders of being “communist”.

I have been a Member of Parliament for some 50 years and Parliamentary Leader of Opposition for some 30 years. I never knew I was a communist. When did Hadi discover that I am a communist .

I am interested to know what made me a communist after the Teluk Intan by-election in 2014.

The Special Branch does not know that I had been a communist. Did Hadi brief the Special Branch that I am a communist, with all the supporting documentation?

If not, Hadi has failed his duty as a citizen of Malaysia.

Instead of looking for factors and reasons to unite Malaysia of many races, religions, languages, cultures and regions, Hadi is trying to invent new reasons to divide Malaysians.

Is such a person fit to be the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia?
