Ah yes, of course, progressives believe in DAP. Un-progressives do not believe in DAP.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
Today, the news kecuh regarding the PAS ‘progressives’ buka puasa with their DAP and PKR masters last night. There is talk that the ‘progressives’ in PAS are going to form a new party — maybe they can call it Parti Untuk Kaum Islam (PUKI) — and will team up with DAP and PKR to form a new opposition coalition, Pakatan Rakyat 2.0.
As I wrote in my earlier article, What do you mean by progressive Malays? (READ HERE), we need to establish the difference between these PAS progressives and the PAS…hmm…what do we call them? Un-progressives?
This is so that we can decide whether to support these progressives or are they just offering us old wine in a new bottle?
Okay, so let us compare the difference between these progressives and their counterparts, the un-progressives.
