comments     Published     Updated

Kelantan Umno claimed that its new leadership line-up is posing a major threat to PAS, and that the opposition party which rules the state is feeling the heat as the general election looms.

According to a Berita Minggu report today, the new leadership announced by Umno president Dr Mahathir Mohamad last Thursday is capable of taking over the state from PAS.

Gua Musang Umno information chief Norzula Mat Diah claimed that 'arrogant' PAS leaders in Kelantan are now worried of losing the state to Umno due to the strength of the new party line-up.

During his recent Kelantan visit, Mahathir announced the appointment of Kota Bharu division chief Zaid Ibrahim as deputy state liaison chief to replace Anuar Musa, while Tenaga Nasional Berhad chairman Dr Awang Adek Husin was made treasurer.
