Caretaker Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin has questioned the sincerity of the PAS vice-president Husam Musa in contesting Putrajaya parliamentary seat.

He said the fact that Husam is also contesting the Salor state seat in Kelantan shows that he is afraid of losing in Putrajaya.

"We (BN) want elected representatives who work and not sleep on the job.

"Putrajaya voters must give him a heavy defeat and if possible make sure he lose the deposit," he told a rally in Precinct 9, Putrajaya last night.

NONE The clash in Putrajaya is a straight fight between the incumbent, Barisan Nasional secretary-general Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor (right) and Husam.

Muhyiddin reminded Putrajaya voters who are mostly civil servants of the opposition plan to reduce the number of civil servants if they came to power.

This was in contrast to caretaker Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak who is working hard to take care of the welfare of civil servants.

"I think that I am working hard but I see him (Najib) working doubly hard. Of course he is younger than me, but he works very hard," he added.
