PAS welcomes anyone to attend their Himpunan 60 Ribu (H60K) rally, following the red shirt rally frontman Jamal Md Yunos' remark that they are considering joining their rally on Oct 17 in Kota Bharu.

Both PAS vice-president Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man and the H60K rally committee member Khairuddin Aman Razali told Malaysiakini that anyone can attend their rally.

"We welcome anyone who shares the national agenda of calling for a transparent government and not to keep silent on any corruption in the country.

"The red shirts (rally organiser) can contact the rally committee for further discussion," said Khairuddin, who is also Kuala Nerus MP.

Tuan Ibrahim insisted, however, that the Islamic party is against racism and supports national harmony.

He also reminded that people must respect the rakyat's unity in fighting against corruption and abuse of power.

Earlier today, it was reported that Jamal ( photo ) had said he was mulling joining the green rally if it was for the unity of Malays.

On Sept 15, PAS had announced their H60K rally to be held at Stadium Sultan Muhamad IV, Kota Baru, to garner support from their grassroots again.

This announcement came after PAS had been through a slew of conflicts with their fellow opposition parties as well as former leaders within their party.

The rally is seen as important to return the Islamic party's strength in Kelantan for the upcoming general election.

PAS is also now facing a difficult situation against any obstacles without their iconic leader Nik Aziz Nik Mat and the possibility of their members defecting to the splinter party, Parti Amanah Negara.
