“We are ready to be the opposition\u2026.PAS has been in the opposition for decades so it\u2019s not a problem. We don\u2019t want an unclean government. We are principled, we are not a party that drifts,\u201d<\/em> he told reporters after a party event in Cheng here today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was commenting on a report about PAS secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan on potential alliance between PN and Barisan Nasional (BN) to form the government after GE15 if both coalitions failed to secure a simple majority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GE polling day is set on Nov 19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
