PETALING JAYA: PAS has called on Umno to explain claims that Umno MPs have shifted support from the Prime Minister.
said if this was indeed true, then Umno, its partner in Muafakat Nasional, had gone against their understanding and agreement signed in a joint charter last year.
"As such, if the transition is real, then it can be considered as a movement intended to overthrow the Perikatan Nasional government, built on the consensus of Barisan Nasional, Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia , PAS, Gabungan Parti Sarawak and a few other parties following the fall of Pakatan. On Wednesday , Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had said the party would not stop its MPs from backing PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim as prime minister.He said he"respects their stand".
