Kit Siang ‘concedes defeat’ to Hadi who can’t distinguish between personal opinion and DAP’s official stance

OBVIOUSLY, what I have tried to do in the last 14 months was a failure as PAS president Tan Sri Hadi Awang believed my suggestion for PAS to join Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s unity government was an official proposal and not my personal unofficial view.
PAS information chief Khairil Nizam Khirudin said that “it was in fact DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang who had the overture” that PAS joins the Anwar unity government.
Khairil is wrong. I am not the DAP adviser. In response to PAS deputy president Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man on May 18, I have said:
“Firstly, let me clarify that the proposal for co-operation between the Anwar unity government and PAS to resolve the 60-year water problem and the lack of development in Kelantan, Terengganu, and Kedah is my personal idea and not that of DAP as I have not discussed it with the DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke Siew Fook or any other DAP leaders.
“In fact, this is why I declined Anthony Loke’s proposal to appoint me as a DAP mentor as I want to be able to give my personal views and ideas on the current political situation – national and international – without committing the DAP.
