PETALING JAYA: Some leaders of Muafakat Nasional (MN) have forgotten the genuine spirit of cooperation behind the pact after aligning themselves with Perikatan Nasional (PN) and becoming too comfortable with the power they enjoy , says Mohamad Hasan.

The Umno deputy president said the moment they viewed PN as a shortcut to power, the agenda of ummah unity would not be attained.

Mohamed said the leaders also held the erroneous perception that all the problems and interests of the Malay-Muslim community could be addressed by PN.

Yesterday, PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang rejected an “incomplete” MN, the pact forged between Umno and PAS in the aftermath of the 14th general election.

He said that being part of MN in its present form was akin to being “shackled”. PAS is also part of PN.

“It must be accepted that PN, which has become a bigger political movement, needs to be in power in this plural society,” Hadi told party organ, Harakahdaily.
