Columnist Dr Ridhuan Tee Abdullah criticised the DAP today for allegedly looking down on PAS and for trying to boot them from the Selangor government, claiming the Islamist party has many professionals and is not just made up of \u201cturban-wearing\u201d clerics.<\/p>\n

Tee, who is also a Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin lecturer, claimed that the DAP had questioned PAS when the Islamist party said it would abstain from voting on Budget 2016 and had asked since when PAS became experts, much less experts in the economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cPAS is no longer like before, even though a small group of professionals has left PAS to form Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah).<\/p>\n

\u201cPAS is not like Amanah; PAS has a stand \u2014 they\u2019re not cows being led by the nose. PAS has greater political maturity compared to Amanah,\u201d the Chinese convert added.<\/p>\n

DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said recently at the Selangor DAP convention that PAS was now showing its true colours and its desire to be friendly with Barisan Nasional (BN), after PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang said his party would not reject Budget 2016.<\/p>\n

DAP delegates at the convention had also called for PAS to be booted from the Selangor state government, but executive councillor Datuk Teng Chang Khim from the DAP had downplayed the friction in the state\u2019s ad hoc coalition government between the DAP, PKR and PAS.<\/p>\n
