A deep crack has surfaced in Pas after spiritual leader Datuk Nik Aziz Nik Mat openly told the party No. 2 Nasharuddin Mat Isa to quit and join Umno if he is interested in pursuing the unity government agenda. The Kelantan Menteri Besar said Nasharuddin, the deputy president, should also resign as member of parliament for Bachok as his actions in promoting the agenda has brought problems and disunity in Pas and Pakatan Rakyat.

Nik Aziz reiterated that the unity government issue did not come from Pas but a personal view of somebody in the party.

But even as he spoke, Pas secretary-general Datuk Mustafa Ali went off on another tangent, telling a press conference at the party headquarters in Kuala Lumpur that Pas wants its Pakatan partners DAP and Parti Keadilan Rakyat to be included in the unity talks.

Still, it was the tone of the Tok Guru’s public rebuke of Nasharuddin that shows that the party is headed for a split.

"I want to be frank. If Nasharuddin continues to support it, then it is better for him to join Umno. He should resign from his post as Bachok MP and recontest the seat.
"There is no point creating problem for others. There is no moral in it," Nik Aziz told reporters after chairing the state exco meeting here yesterday.

He said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's statement on Tuesday that he believed Pas was sincere in wanting to form a unity government was incorrect as the idea did not come from it.

"It has not brought unity but disunity in both Pas and Pakatan. Our opponents are having a party as we have fallen in their trap.

"The issue was not in the agenda of the party and also Pakatan Rakyat. It did not come officially from us and that is why Pakatan Rakyat also did not know about it.

"Both Pas and Pakatan has not discussed about it. So why should we make a big thing about it," he said.

Nik Aziz, however, said the problem could be solved by bringing it to a meeting at the party and Pakatan level.

"If both Pas and Pakatan agree to it, then all from Pas, DAP, PKR and Barisan Nasional can become members of the government," he said.

The Menteri Besar said he issue had also brought him a headache

"I have been receiving many calls (from party members and supporters), some came personally from Kelantan and other States. Several people cried when they spoke of the issue while some were too distressed to talk about it.”

is this a true story??? or the media just want to make it a big story??
maybe it just a missunderstanding between Nik Aziz and Nasharuddin..or maybe also missunderstanding between the media..
what we know today, Malaysian's politics is unsteady right now..for the example was the political fight in Perak.
so, as a student, we must don't believe this story 100% and don't disregard this story 100%.
