Hadi has handed list of PAS’s exco choices to Azmin

PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang has given the names of the party’s choice for state executive councillors to Selangor Menteri Besar Mohamad Azmin Ali.

Secretary-general Datuk Mustafa Ali said the selection of the exco members was done by Hadi.

"The party president handed the list of names to Azmin last night," Mustafa was quoted as saying by Harakahdaily.

According to the Islamist party’s news portal, Mustafa declined to reveal the total number of candidates involved or their names.

However, he told Harakahdaily that he was confident there would be no major changes.

"I do not have an issue if the four previous exco members are retained," he said.

Mustafa's comments have strengthened speculation that the four PAS exco members, labelled as "traitors" to Pakatan Rakyat by DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng, would be retained.

The four are Iskandar Abdul Samad, Dr Halimah Ali, Dr Ahmad Yunus Hairi dan Sallehen Mukhyi. –TMI
