PETALING JAYA: PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang’s remark that the Opposition has the right to plan the government’s downfall risks being taken as a sign that Perikatan Nasional’s ambition is to seize federal power before the five-year term is up, say political observers.
They said it also might create political uncertainty and instability, which could jeopardise Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s attempts to restore the confidence of international investors that had taken a hit due to years of Malaysia’s political turmoil.
