KOTA BARU: PAS is set to field candidates in the Melaka state election if it is held, says PAS secretary-general Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan (pic).

       He said the party had yet to decide on the number of seats to be contested and the candidates.

       According to him, the party had set up a parent committee for the state election chaired by PAS vice-president Dr Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar.

       “We also hope that the state election is contested based on consensus, as has been established at the federal level.

       “All parties should be united (and) there should be no clashes with one another.

       “We will be together with all the parties that are with the Federal Government,” he told reporters after officiating the 54th Kota Baru PAS general meeting here yesterday. – Bernama
