Wan Azizah strolls down a memory lane called PAS

Opposition leader and PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail recalled the reformasi era when PAS supported the then opposition pact Barisan Alternatif.

Ironically, the reformasi movement was borne out of the feud between Wan Azizah's husband Anwar Ibrahim and former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who is now a member of the current opposition coalition Pakatan Harapan.

Wan Azizah said PAS, under the leadership of its late president Fadzil Noor, had supported the reformasi movement, resulting in the opposition making significant gains in the general election.

“In 1999, I saw the attitude of PAS under the late Fadzil Noor, (the opposition) received support when he backed the reformasi.

“During that period, PAS supported us and we got the highest (votes) in the general election. That is my comment. It is best we work together to topple BN,” she told reporters in Parliament.
