Weighing in to deflect brickbats thrown at PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang over the replica keris fracas, a party veep said that there is nothing wrong with his boss brandishing the oversized mock Malay dagger, as it makes for a more colourful political landscape.

“What is wrong for us to make things more colourful ?” asked party vice-president Idris Ahmad.

Using the analogy of fashion style where some choose to wear similar coloured clothes while others likes contrasting colours, he said the keris depicts PAS’ own brand of style.
