By Clara Chooi, The Malaysian Insider

The Perak Pakatan Rakyat convention saw the passing of 10 resolutions which, among others, called for the three component parties of DAP, PAS and PKR to set aside their differences and make decisions based on consensus.

The resolutions were read out by PAS’ Titi Serong assemblyman Dr Khalil Idham Lim Abdullah after some 600 delegates presented their views during the day-long convention held at the Syuen Hotel here yesterday.

The resolutions are:

1. Cooperation and unity in Pakatan Rakyat must continue to be strengthened in order to topple Umno/Barisan Nasional. Any form of prejudices or negative perceptions between the PR partners must be avoided.

2. Improve on the principle of collective decision by using the negotiation table as a method to solve problems.

3. Strengthen and mobilise party organisations by giving serious emphasis to the setting up of PR collaborative councils at all party levels.

4. Destroy the doctrine of racism right up to the grassroots and improve relationships with the people, government servants, politicians, non-governmental organisations and the Royal Institution.

5. Fielding candidates of good calibre and integrity as the basis and focus of any victory in state or parliamentary seats contested by the PR. To focus on self-improvement programmes for all party members.

6. Continue with using the 5K principles as the foundation to work and rule – justice, honesty, integrity, welfare and transparency.

7. Continue and increase media and information series throughout the state in order to ensure the people receive accurate information and do not have their mindsets ruled by Umno/BN.

8. Programmes to create togetherness amongst the PR parties must be held as soon as possible to ensure all PR members understand each others’ struggles.

9. To continue seeking for the help and blessings of Allah whether faced by a crisis or not.

10. The resolutions committee to push for the PR alliance to be registered as a coalition and be represented by a single logo.

Former Perak mentri besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin said the resolutions would formulate the basis of PR in Perak, which needed to stay strong to face the coming challenges.

“We are stressing on the strengthening of the PR and, as you can see, we have clearly stated that there will be no racial elements in any of our struggles.

“We do not want racism in PR, whether in DAP or PAS or PKR. Unlike us, it is Umno that is racist,” he said in a press conference after the convention.
