ANALYSIS Since the inaugural Multaqa Serantau Alumni Al-Azhar Malaysia 2015 was convened last week to pave the way towards uniting PAS and Umno, the Islamist party is said to be in a state of conflict.

To some analysts, PAS is now seen to be in a shaky position, with several statements being made allegedly to foster cooperation with Umno.

Even though PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang is seen to be “positive” towards the cooperation, the same cannot be said for his deputy, Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man.
