SHAH ALAM: PAS has hit back at a DAP leader for suggesting that Malaysia is a secular state, saying that the DAP’s own 15th General Election manifesto showed otherwise.PAS deputy president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said if Malaysia was indeed a secular country, DAP would not need to push for Malaysia to be secularised.

“The DAP manifesto proves that Malaysia is not secular. Furthermore, the Federal Constitution states that Islam is the official religion of the country. This is why all official events always have the Islamic element such as do’a,” Tuan Ibrahim told reporters yesterday.
