I recall sometime back, in the last GE, where Ezam said something to the amount of keADILan being a pluralist party.IMHO, if it is possible for PKR to stay along those lines, it would be great for the Malaysian voter.Then you would have a 2 generic opposition parties, both by doctrine not race-centric, but at the same time by virtue of membership stats, having a high polarity of a certain race.

I go on to believe that minus PAS in this equation, a PKR-DAP alliance would be much more appealing, as then you will have two ‘moderate’ parties check and balance each other, as opposed to your current arrangement where PAS and PKR moderate each other.PAS would only serve to unbalance the scales, adding the less palatable religious element into the whole thing.

If PKR doesn’t change it’s strategies soon, it would go the way of Semangat 46 very soon. Let’s all hope that this won’t be the case

A party that fights hudud or whatever should not be clinging to PAS’ sarong and campaigning for it. A strong opposition is of course always ideal, but this makes PKR look very bad in the eyes of non-Muslim voters. PKR and PAS are diametrically opposed, and their relationship is merely one of convenience. Such relationships tend to fail, and PKR will almost certainly be the victim, as it has been relying a lot on PAS.

PKR may be multiracial, but its upper echelons are mostly Ketuanan Anwar folk who used to be his cronies before being dumped out of the government to be replaced by a new generation of corrupt UMNOputras. One or two Anwar critics doesn’t change the fact that most PKR members worship him.
