All PAS members are barred from joining any programmes hosted by PAS splinter party Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah) or DAP, a directive reads.

This comes after former PAS vice-president Husam Musa spoke at a Kelantan Amanah dinner in Petaling Jaya on Jan 1 and attended a DAP event in Johor later this month.

The directive goes on to state that members who want to attend events of parties other than Amanah and DAP must first get approval from the PAS central committee.

The directive, dated Jan 8, is signed by secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan.

Earlier, Selangor PAS declared Amanah as its enemy, while Pakatan Harapan said it would not let such polemics distract from its main goal of unseating BN in the next general election.

Pakatan Harapan, a coalition made up of PKR, DAP and Amanah, was formed after the demise of Pakatan Rakyat due to DAP-PAS squabbles.

Pakatan Rakyat, made up of PKR, DAP and PAS, fell apart when DAP opposed PAS’ ambitions to implement the hudud in Kelantan and PAS at its last general assembly broke off ties with DAP.

Following this, several top PAS leaders left the Islamist party to form Amanah.

However, PAS and PKR have a standing cooperation which sees PAS and DAP members sitting in the Selangor executive council, led by Selangor Menteri Besar and PKR deputy president Azmin Ali.

PKR’s membership in Pakatan Harapan also saw Selangor allocating several local council posts to Amanah.
