UMNO should fight PAS in the next general election as the Islamist party cannot be trusted, said Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah.

“We have always fought PAS. They did not begin yesterday but have been there since 1951,” said the 12-term MP during an interview with The Malaysian Insight on Wednesday. – March 12, 2021.

The Umno-PAS history aside, Tengku Razaleigh said that PAS cannot be trusted to help Umno in GE15 as they are part of Perikatan Nasional.

The 84-year-old said that although PAS and Umno had signed the Muafakat Nasional pact 2 years ago, the Islamists were insincere when it came to by-elections.
“PAS are like prostitutes, going back and forth between DAP and Semangat 46.,” he said referring to the time when he helmed Umno splinter Party Melayu Semangat 43.
