PETALING JAYA: The abolition of the Perikatan Nasional chairman's post was never discussed with or agreed to by PAS, says Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang. The PAS president said on Wednesday (Jan 28), that the issue had never been discussed or agreed to, including at a meeting with former Perikatan chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin on Jan 16. This comes following the circulation of an internal letter to the presidents of Perikatan component parties. In the letter, dated Jan 27, Muhyiddin said that PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang had agreed to this during a meeting at Muhyiddin's house on Jan 16. He said that two councils were mooted during the meeting - a presidential council led by Bersatu and an executive council led by PAS.
