Zaid schools Hadi on ‘real groups without integrity’

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: In a jibe against PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang, former federal minister Zaid Ibrahim has listed examples of politicians without integrity, including those who preach Islamic governance without being willing to make meaningful changes.

Zaid was responding to Hadi’s Facebook post, which stated that Umno and Pakatan Harapan had no integrity regardless of whether or not they won the majority of the seats in Parliament in the upcoming general election.

Zaid, in return, said in a Facebook post: “The best example of politicians with no integrity include those who use Covid-19 as an excuse to remain in power through the proclamation of emergency.

“Other examples include those using government power to ‘persuade’ MPs to jump parties, using government funds without prior approval in Parliament, and those speaking on reforms and Islamic governance, but are not willing to make ‘structural’ or thorough changes in the country’s system, in line with the requirements of a democratic country.”
