Tiada Niat Sertai Umno:Nasharudin

PETALING JAYA- Bekas Timbalan Presiden PAS, Nasharudin Mat Isa yang mendapat kecaman hebat daripada beberapa pemimpin parti itu berhubung kesetiaannya terhadap PAS menegaskan beliau tidak mempunyai niat sebesar zarah sekalipun unntuk menyertai Umno.
Menurut beliau, dakwaan kononnya dia terperangkap dalam agenda Umno terlalu jauh menyimpang daripada kebenaran dan tidak berasas.
"Saya tegaskan di sini bahawa saya adalah ahli PAS dan perjuangan saya kekal bersama parti untuk menjunjung risalah Islam, menyumbang kepada ummah dalam apa jua keadaan," katanya dalam satu kenyataan yang dikeluarkan pada Rabu.
Nasharudin berkata, sepanjang bersama PAS beliau tidak pernah mengeluarkan ungkapan akan menyertai Umno.
"Janganlah gunakan alasan mudah seperti ini untuk menyimpulkan tindakan, pandangan atau perhitungan politik saya pada ketika kita mengharung gelombang percaturan politik yang jauh lebih mencabar," katanya.

PRU-13 semakin hampir, Perak bertukar menjadi tempat ‘pembunuhan politik’

Pemilihan terkini menunjukkan bahawa rakyat Perak akan memihak kepada Pakatan Rakyat dalam pilihan raya umum akan datang, yang dijangka akan dipanggil pada tahun 2012. Ia akan menjadi satu tugas besar bagi Barisan Nasional (BN) untuk kekal berkuasa selepas diambil alih secara kelam-kabut dan diragui oleh Pakatan Rakyat pada Februari 2009 selepas tiga anggota perundangan negeri dari Pakatan mengisytiharkan diri mereka sebagai ahli bebas. Rupa-rupanya, pengundi masih marah atas peristiwa-peristiwa yang menumbangkan kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat melalui proses mahkamah.
Zambry Abdul Kadir, MB terkini, tidak boleh dipersalahkan bagi Umno sekarang dan BN yang tidak popular di Perak. Malah di seluruh negara populariti mereka juga telah semakin surut ke tahap yang paling rendah kerana kualiti kepimpinan yang lemah dan huru-hara yang berkaitan dengan skandal, rasuah, dan kronisme di kalangan pemimpin mereka.

Nasharuddin dan Hasan, dua talam dua muka yang PAS boleh buang

Seorang di antara mereka mahu mencipta sejarah menjadi insan yang menyatukan orang Melayu dan umat Islam dengan menggabungkan PAS dan UMNO. Nasharudin Mat Isa juga cukup bodoh dengan mempercayai pembohongan mereka yang memberitahunya bahawa dia akan menjadi Timbalan Perdana Menteri Malaysia. Seorang lagi mempunyai cita-cita yang tidak begitu tinggi, dia hanya mahu menjadi Menteri Besar Selangor. Dan apabila dia gagal untuk mendapatkan apa yang dia mahu, Hasan Ali bersikap tidak ubah seperti seorang yang ingin mensabotaj Pakatan Rakyat dan partinya.
Pada masa ini Ahli Parlimen PAS Bachok, Nasharudin berkhidmat sebagai Timbalan Presiden PAS 2005-2011, dan merapatkan dirinya dengan Hadi Awang, Presiden PAS. Jelas sekali, ini adalah untuk memastikan kenaikan mendadak beliau dan untuk sementara waktu, mereka yang curigakannya agak berputus asa memikirkan keinginan beliau untuk bergabung dengan UMNO sehinggalah Nik Aziz Nik Mat menolak idea itu. Pada kongres tahunan PAS 2011, Nasharudin ditewaskan oleh Mat Sabu yang rendah diri -tanda yang jelas bahawa perwakilan PAS tidak mahu mempunyai apa-apa kaitan dengan UMNO.

Sensing time's up, Hasan Ali declares war against PAS

KUALA LUMPUR— Datuk Hasan Ali has declared war on PAS with his rejection of the “Negara Berkebajikan” concept as championed by its leaders, party vice-president Datuk Mahfuz Omar said today.
Mahfuz’s remark appears the clearest sign yet that Hasan’s days in PAS are numbered, especially after his recent public criticisms of the party sparked outrage and condemnation from a host of senior leaders in the Pakatan Rakyat (PR) coalition.
Hasan, a senior Selangor government leader, has accused PAS of deviating from its Islamic agenda, pointing to the shift to push the concept of a “Negara Berkebajikan” or Welfare State, at the party’s annual general meeting earlier this year.
“His statement yesterday when he rejected ‘Negara Berkebajikan’ is a declaration of war with PAS... It can be considered waging war against the party by rejecting decisions made by party leaders,” Mahfuz (picture) told reporters at a press conference here.

Shahrizat's husband says to behave "intelligently": Refuses to clarify RM10mil S'pore condo

KUALA LUMPUR— Finding himself cast in the spotlight again over PKR’s latest round of allegations on the National Feedlot Centre (NFC) scandal, Datuk Seri Mohamad Salleh Ismail has retreated further into the shadows.
The NFC executive chairman refused today to refute, deny or confirm the allegations, saying he was no longer speaking to the media on the matter.
“No…I am not speaking to any media. I’m sorry,” Mohamad Salleh told The Malaysian Insider in a soft, apologetic voice.
His wife, senior Cabinet minister and senator Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abd Jalil, has already absolved herself from any involvement in the RM250 million controversy.
In her first move to address the matter during the recent Umno annual general meeting, Shahrizat said it had nothing to do with her.
Since then, the Wanita Umno chief has neither moved to attack her accusers nor attempted to ward off the accusations by issuing a denial.

To guarantee victory, Pakatan too needs to buck up

Although I am a DAP member and a huge supporter of Pakatan Rakyat, I must declare that I am a little disappointed as to how they have been conducting themselves of late. When it comes to seat allocations during the General Elections is it obvious that many people want their say, and the expression "washing dirty linen in public" could be very aptly used.
After an atrocious showing by Umno at their General Assembly which basically comprised of fear-mongering the loss of Malay power, disrespect to the royal institution by the opposition and DAP bashing, I would have thought that Pakatan Rakyat, especially the DAP would capitalise on this hatred. However what has transpired since from the opposition parties have been extremely disappointing.
It is already very clear that the BN government is corrupt and racist. Umno are unapologetic in their slanderous onslaught which is dripping with racial venom and blatant lies. The MCA continues to flog the hudud horse, pitting PAS against the DAP and Gerakan offering nuggets of sense in support of electoral reform. The party missing from this equation happens to be the MIC, who have done the most intelligent thing by keeping silent.

Nasharudin pledges to stay loyal to PAS

PETALING JAYA- Embattled former PAS deputy president Nasharudin Mat Isa has pledged his loyalty to his party and denied claims that he intends to join Umno.
"All these claims that I am trapped in the agenda and games of our political enemies are far from the truth and baseless," said Nasharudin in a press statement Wednesday.
"Throughout my participation in PAS, which I accept as the voice of Islam for Muslims in the country, I have not once stated that I intend to join Umno.
"I would like to stress that I am a PAS member, and my struggle to uphold Islam and help Muslims in any way remains with PAS," he said.
Nasharudin has been under fire after his allegations that the party was "loose" and had "cast aside" its Islamic principles to pursue political power.
