PAS info chief calls out Pakatan for misusing royal institution after sharing pictures of King’s portrait in KKB election campaign
KUALA LUMPUR, May 5 — PAS today accused the ruling Pakatan Harapan (PH) of misusing a portrait of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Ibrahim to boost its candidate’s prospect in the May 11 Kuala Kubu Baru by-election.
The Islamist party’s information chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari condemned the act, saying it smacked of desperation.
“Dragging the Royal Institution into the Kuala Kubu Baru campaign should not happen. I’m sure that even the Palace and the Prime Minister’s Office does not know about this activity.
“Don’t be so desperate to campaign to a point that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s name is being dragged into this situation,” he said in a Facebook entry.
He shared several photographs of the portraits of Sultan Ibrahim and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim who is also PH chairman were mounted on an open-back truck festooned with the coalition’s flag, as well as the Johor and national flags.
