BANGI: PAS’ decision to stay out of the anti-GST protest in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday contributed to its poor turnout, said Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man.  

The PAS deputy president said although the issue on the Goods and Services Tax (GST) was a pertinent one, the protest lacked a mobilisation strategy, unlike the demonstrations organised by the Islamist party.
