SUPP Central Youth Chairman Tan Kai is very much doubtful of the significance of Sarawak DAP’s announcement, when its chairman YB Chong Chieng Jen declared the party would quit Pakatan coalition at the state level. Tan Kai is also questioning if the decision was made because Sarawak DAP had realized what the consequences were and how it could affect and change the entire social landscape of our country, or it was merely another political gimmick?

“How can we forget DAP’s Socialist Youth National Chairman Loke Siew Fook when he boldly assured the non-Muslims that there was nothing to be feared as long as no crime was committed? The fact is what Sarawak DAP is doing now is contrary to what they preached in the first place. What I would like to know, and what the people should know is, who got cheated, DAP or the Rakyats?”

Tan Kai also quoted DAP’s Penang Chief Minister YB Lim Guan Eng as saying DAP had nothing against Hudud law, just its implementation in Malaysia. “His statement is still fresh in everyone’s memory but Sarawak DAP has declared that it would pull out of Sarawak Pakatan’s coalition if PAS continued to pursue its Hudud agendas.”

“Even in West Malaysia, PAS gave no attention to what DAP leaders had to say and told DAP to leave Pakatan if they did not agree to the implementation of Hudud law. PAS leaders could not have cared less, what more to say it is only Sarawak DAP quitting Pakatan coalition at state level? Why Sarawak DAP did not just pull out immediately and had to wait two months? Were they really that naïve to even think that PAS would change its mind”, questioned Tan Kai.

According to Tan Kai, it is necessary to point out that PAS has never hide the party’s Hudud agenda which in fact, it has been the party’s ultimate goal and political struggle all the while.

Sadly, he said, in order to realize the party’s selfish political agendas, DAP had chosen to campaign for PAS’s candidates in the past many elections, convincing the party’s followers and supporters who are mainly Chinese to vote for PAS candidates, leading to PAS’s dominance today.

“On the other hand, the DAP has been rather vague and indecisive. They had quit the Alternative Front back then, due to the same reason. But look what happened? The two parties became close allies soon after. Now that DAP is trying to play the same old trick twice – are they trying to mock the wisdom of Malaysian voters or they are under-estimating our intelligence?”
