Little traction seen for PAS leader’s call for Umno to work with it

PETALING JAYA: Two academics have voiced their doubt that a PAS invitation to Umno to work with it at rebuilding the country will carry much weight with Umno leaders.

Azmi Hassan of Akademi Nusantara said he believed Umno leaders would feel that emulating PAS would lead their party to a path unsuitable for Malaysia.

James Chin of the University of Tasmania said Umno would not look at cooperation with PAS until after the elections in six states, which must be called by September.
