KAJANG: DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang is only worried about the split of Pakatan Rakyat and not national unity while addressing the PAS’ hudud issue, says MCA president Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai.
“I am sad that at this point, when our national unity is at risk, Lim is only worried about his own party when he should be worried about the change in the country’s Constitution,” Liow said at the installation ceremony of the newly-elected committee members of the Selangor and Federal Territory Federation of Social Clubs here on Monday night.
He also said this was no the time to play politics and one should prioritise the future of the people.
“The Opposition claims that we dare not stand up to object PAS’ hudud but I have personally seen our Prime Minister to tell him our stance, which is to oppose the implementation of PAS’ hudud,” he added.
Liow suggested that DAP should stand up and voice out its stance on the implementation of PAS’ hudud instead of just pointing fingers.
They dare not stand up against PAS opposition leader Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang, when in fact they have all the right to tell PAS that they are against the Islamic law, Liow added.
He stressed that the Constitution should always be upheld and that Barisan Nasional had always been protecting the Constitution.
“It has never been our intention to introduce PAS’ hudud in the Constitution and we will go all out to prevent it from being implemented,” Liow said.
