Unanimity could have prevented PH blunder in Melaka, says Kit Siang - superadmin - 11-22-2021 PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan (PH) should make unanimity a rule for decision-making by its presidential council instead of component parties deciding crucial matters on their own, said DAP stalwart Lim Kit Siang. He said matters that involved national policies and political decisions vital for the integrity of the coalition must be unanimous before being implemented. Citing the move by PKR and Amanah to accept party-hoppers to stand as candidates for the coalition in Melaka, Lim said such a rule would have prevented this “blunder”, as shown by the total rejection of the two candidates by the voters. The DAP was openly against PKR’s decision to accept Umno’s former Melaka chief minister Idris Haron as a candidate for the Asahan seat and Amanah’s move to field Nor Azman Hassan in Pantai Kundor. Both lost their seats by big margins. “PH should never lose the moral high ground of integrity, public service before self and being Malaysian first in a multi-racial, multi-lingual, multi-religious and multi-cultural nation,” he said in a statement today. - More -
