MAT SABU: We need a new approach to draw the people's support
PAS is no longer relevant in the current political landscape and must be reformed, said its former deputy president Mohamad Sabu, also known as Mat Sabu.
He said Gerakan Harapan Baru (GHB) which he and other former PAS leaders launched last Monday, was one way of reform for the Islamic party in order to remain relevant.
"We need a new approach to draw the people's support and yes, they (PAS) are no longer relevant," he told reporters after attending the Aidilfitri open house organised by the state DAP here Sunday.
He said the GHB would go on a nationwide roadshow before applying to register as a political party.
"We will endeavour to get GHB registered in a month or so and tonight we would be giving briefings on it in Kangar Perlis and Kota Bharu, Kelantan simultaneously," he said.
Earlier, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said he welcomed the entry of GHB into the political arena but denied that it was a DAP proxy.
He said DAP stood by the principle that a political party must be clean, idealistic and capable of good governance.
