  • PAS Perlis representative Solahudin Azmi said the party remains in the Perikatan Nasional state government to carry out its mandate, not merely to retain positions.
  • He said PAS should contribute to government while providing checks and balances, without dominating or interfering in day-to-day administration.
  • Solahudin urged the Perlis leadership to build a clean and effective record before returning its mandate to voters at the next election.

PAS says its place in the Perikatan Nasional government in Perlis is not about positions. It is about carrying what Solahudin Azmi called the people’s heavy trust.

Speaking during a debate on the party president’s policy address at PAS’s 72nd annual muktamar in Kelantan, the PAS Perlis delegate said PN’s victory in the 15th General Election marked the beginning of a responsibility. The coalition’s manifesto and commitments, he said, must become development and better public services.

PAS is more interested in contributing, not dominating, and strengthening, not weakening, while ensuring the people’s interests remain the priority.

· Solahudin AzmiHe described PAS’s intended role in the Perlis state government.

Solahudin, who also leads PAS in Arau, described the party’s role in the state administration as a check and balance based on mutual advice and cooperation. “PAS is more interested in contributing, not dominating, and strengthening, not weakening, while ensuring the people’s interests remain the priority,” he said.

PN’s strength is not tested only during elections, but by how we manage differences, resolve conflicts and put the people’s interests above group interests after becoming the government.

· Solahudin AzmiHe said governing would test the coalition beyond its electoral performance.

He said PN’s strength would be tested not only at election time, but also by its ability to manage differences, resolve conflicts and put public interests above group interests after taking power. The party should set policy direction, he said, while the government should implement it through professional administration that follows the law.

At the same time, Solahudin warned that PAS should not interfere excessively in operations in ways that damage administrative professionalism. He called on PN Perlis leaders to use their opportunity in government to build a clean and effective record ahead of the next election. When the mandate returns to voters, he said, the coalition should bring not only new promises but also a record of what it has delivered.

When the time comes, we will return the mandate to the people. Let us come not merely with new promises, but with an outstanding record of what we have managed to fulfill.

· Solahudin AzmiHe urged the Perlis government to build a record before the next election.
