00:00A Bersatu leader has praised PAS for agreeing to admit non-Muslims into the party, saying

00:07it will boost Perikatan Nasional's prospects at the upcoming Makota by-election.

00:13At its 70th muktamar on Saturday, PAS agreed to amend its constitution to allow non-Muslims

00:19to become associate members.

00:21Bersatu Associate Wing Chief Chong Fat Ful told FMT the move would allow PAS to counter

00:28negative narratives about the party and improve its standing among non-Malays ahead of the

00:34Johor state constituency polls.

00:37He said the general distrust non-Malays have towards PAS was due to a misinterpretation

00:42of views expressed by leaders of the Islamist party on certain matters.

00:47Chong also said the Green Wave label, frequently used by PN's political rivals, gave rise to

00:53a negative connotation against the opposition coalition.

00:57He said PAS allowing non-Muslims to join the party is a positive development, portraying

01:03itself as an inclusive party ready to embrace non-Muslims.
