A defined lobby of young, educated and ambitious ulama in PAS are using the Internet in an unprecedented way to undermine the Erdogan camp ahead of the party election in November.
ZAHARUDIN Muhammad of PAS is apparently quite amused at being compared to Umno’s Khairy Jamaluddin. He has been labelled as “the son-in-law” by some PAS members and it is not exactly a compliment.
