WHEN A CHINESE WRITES ABOUT PAS...

"The Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammed Nizar Jamaluddin is much better looking in person than in pictures.

He is tall, has his mother's fair Chinese skin and speaks Cantonese with the Chinese reporters covering the PAS muktamar in Ipoh. But it is his polished English that sets him apart."

The ulama take charge again

By the time the PAS muktamar ended, the party's three ulama superstars had shown that they were again in total control of the party.

THE Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Mohammed Nizar Jamaluddin is much better looking in person than in pictures.

He is tall, has his mother's fair Chinese skin and speaks Cantonese with the Chinese reporters covering the PAS muktamar in Ipoh. But it is his polished English that sets him apart.

He is also the new star of PAS and party members have been lining up to have their photographs taken with him.

Nizar, whom party people refer to rather quaintly as "Datuk Seri Engineer Nizar," now ranks among the "professionals" in the party.

The professional group has been on the rise in PAS since 1998 when the Anwar Ibrahim sacking sent droves of well-educated Malays into PAS.

Their technocratic style and broader worldview was like fresh air blowing into a closed room.

This group did so well in the 2007 party polls they almost eclipsed the conservatives.

Deep Tots:
  • A new star is born not only accepted by the Islamic Party members but admired by Malaysians of multi races.
  • A true gem is always hidden in deep sea and soil but imitations normally surface and scatters all over. Thats the norm!
  • If the non-muslims or also known as the kafirs, writes well for her appreciation of Allah's creation why cant the so claimed muslims at least learn how to appreciate and acknowledge.
  • PAS members should uphold your principals of Islam and at the same time learn to listen others especially what other races have to say. We adhere to 'HabluminaAllah' and uphold to 'HabluminanNas'.
  • We respect the ulamas for our references but the young Turks such as Dato' Seri Nizar would take PAS further for secular challenges.
