Amanah vice president Mahfuz Omar (above) today sarcastically congratulated Umno for its success in "educating" PAS on how to use DAP as a fear-mongering tool.
"I would like to congratulate Umno, which has been successful in educating the PAS president to use DAP as an issue to frighten people," he told journalists at the Parliament lobby today.
Mahfuz was responding to PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang's claim that Amanah was a DAP stooge and that the information had come from a Harapan leader.
Hadi claimed the formation of Amanah, a PAS splinter party, was supported by DAP and aimed at curbing the progress of Islam.
Mahfuz, who is also deputy human resources minister, said such a strategy was outdated.
"PAS is very loyal to Umno. They want to say that DAP is dangerous, communist and other things.
"But Umno, which it is befriending, also has relations to the communist party in China," he said.
