Repent and don’t toy with religion, Tok Mat tells Muhyiddin

Umno deputy suggest Perikatan Nasional chief to explain direction to voters instead

JOHOR BARU – Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin needs to repent over his statement likening voting for Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidate Suhaizan Kayat to a religious sin. 

Umno deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan said Muhyiddin should instead act like a gentleman and explain his coalition’s direction or plans to voters while campaigning and politicking, and not issue statements that distort religious values.  

“Never claim what’s right is a sin, that’s not our right. 

“It’s fine to campaign and engage in politicking, but don’t toy with religion. If this was boxing, what he did was akin to hitting below the belt.  

“I would like to advise my brothers to be gentlemen, tell voters what you are going to do (should you win the by-election), whether you will shore up the government or otherwise, don’t issue statements like this,” he said in response to the Pagoh MP’s statement at a media conference after visiting the Permatang Kempas polling centre here today. 

He also asked the Umno and Barisan Nasional (BN) machineries, especially women, to go out and meet more undecided voters to explain to them the importance of voting for the unity government candidate in Pulai. This is because a PH victory was important to strengthen the administration, which currently has two-thirds majority, and ensure the economic recovery of the country.  

Mohamad said that a strong stable government was the main criteria for investors to invest in a state or country and this was proven by Johor’s achievement of recording RM70.6 billion in investments last year. 

“After Johor won (with two-thirds majority) last year, the state government brought in RM70 billion in investments last year, 30% of the overall national investment. 

“Our country is now the destination for new incoming investors, including Tesla, and existing investors like Infineon Technologies has added another RM25 billion in investments in Kulim High Tech Park in Kedah,” he added. – September 3, 2023
