I first picked up the news 'PAS Invites Umno To Set Up New Islam-based Party To Unite Malays' (source: Bernama.com) when I read rocky's bru 'Dissolve PAS, Dissolve Umno...'
It says:
Remember that Article 3(1) of the Federal Constitution states that “Islam is the religion of the Federation; but other religions may be practised in peace and harmony in any part of the Federation.”
The Federal Constitution clearly protects the position of Islam as the religion of the Federation. So, Islam is NOT the 'umbrella'. The Federal Constitution IS the 'umbrella' for all Malaysians - Muslims and non-Muslims.
It says:
PAS Spiritual Leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat Saturday proposed the dissolution of both PAS and Umno and the setting up of a new Islam-based political party to unite the Malays and enable Islam to be the protective umbrella for all the people, including non-Muslims.Islam to be the protective umbrella for all the people, including non-Muslims. HELLO? Is this a new constitution in the making?
