There were also occasions when they had differences in opinion when resolving the various problems, said Abdul Hadi at Pakatan's second convention at the Dewan Millennium in Penang today.

The one-day convention was also attended by PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, PKR advisor Anwar Ibrahim and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng.

In addition, PAS conceded that it did not have much time to implement several policies drawn up by the opposition pact because the BN was always attempting to engineer the downfall of the states led by the opposition pact.

Abdul Hadi said the states led by the opposition pact would not be able to give a meaningful impact in the new politics of the country if they failed to show a better approach in administration than the BN.

She also denied that the component parties in the pact, namely PKR, PAS and the DAP were facing internal problems and were splitting up.

"The claim that the PR (opposition pact) is declining and facing internal problems to the extent that it was being dissolved is incorrect and we are, on the contrary, always united and this convention proves that the PR is still strong," she said at a press conference on the sidelines of the Pakatan Convention.

Wan Azizah said the second convention also brought the members of the pact closer together and she was confident that they were capable of planning the various agendas to strengthen the pact.
