The Umno Supreme Council member says Malays are hesitant to support DAP because its secular state agenda contradicts Islamic and Malay principles.
Umno Supreme Council member Nur Jazlan Mohamed said Malay voters did not have the same views about MCA because the BN component was not as ‘extreme’ as DAP.
He claimed that Malay voters in Selangor and Johor told him that they could not accept DAP’s political stance as they were made in the interests of the Chinese community. Nur Jazlan said another challenge DAP faced was PAS’s growing support among Malays, which may lead to a political scenario in which Chinese voters would continue to vote for DAP while Malays shift their allegiance to PAS.
Umno had put up one of its worst electoral performances in the recent six state elections, winning only 19 of the 108 state seats it contested, following an equally dismal performance in the 15th general election last November.
