00:00Former aide to ex-Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, Marzuki Muhammad, has warned against
00:06labeling DAP an enemy of Islam, calling such rhetoric dangerous.
00:11Writing on Facebook, Marzuki argued that renewed UMNO-PA's ties had led both parties to create
00:18a common enemy in DAP to sustain their pact and mobilize Malay support.
00:23He stressed that criticizing DAP was legitimate, but demonizing the party and its supporters
00:29as enemies of Islam risk placing about 75% of Malaysia's non-Muslims in the same category.
00:36His remarks followed past President Abdul Hadi Awang's claim that DAP was continuing the
00:42work of colonizers to undermine Malay Muslims.
00:45Hadi cited DAP's push for local council elections and its Malaysian-Malaysia vision, drawing criticism
00:52from DAP leaders and Wanita Amanah Chief Aiman Atira Sabu.
00:56Marzuki also recalled the bitter Islamization race between UMNO and PAS in the 1970s and
01:031980s, including Hadi's controversial remarks branding UMNO members as kafir.
01:09He noted that political discourse later shifted towards governance and the economy when PAS allied
01:16with PKR and DAP, but described UMNO and PAS today as frenemies under Malay Muslim unity.
