(The Sun) PETALING JAYA (April 14, 2008): PAS deputy president Nasaruddin Mat Isa says a remark by deputy spiritual leader Datuk Dr Haron Din that "PAS will implement hudud once the party takes control of the central government" is his personal opinion.
He said currently PAS wants to focus on fulfilling its election manifesto to show that it is concerned with the people's welfare and cares for the people.
Speaking to the press after attending a PAS central committee meeting in Ipoh last night, he said the people has given their mandate to Pakatan Rakyat (in several states), the coalition's priority is to fulfil its manifesto.
Asked if PAS would make Malaysia a practising Islamic state and implement the hudud, Nasaruddin said PAS' policies are formulated along the religious line and it pledges to look after the welfare of the people.
He said non-Muslims need not be afraid of PAS as in the 18 years of PAS rule in Kelantan, the non-Muslims and Chinese had no fear of the party.
