马华坚决反对民联推行断肢法we are confronted with PR trying to implement Hudud Law

民联不能够达成共识是否他们执政后要推行回教法令，回教刑事法或断肢法因为你可以看到今天突然间安华也支持行动党除了卡巴星比较大声，其他的我还没有看到有什么反应我们感到安慰的就是巫统从来不谈断肢法所以今天我们应该要问行动党如果回教党坚持他们的立场是什么？ 不要等到执政后才来闹，选民成为代罪羔羊由于民联的最高领导层内斗我们很清楚民联推行断肢法马华坚决反对Pakatan Rakyat will not be able to reach a consensus if they came to power to implement Islamic law, Islamic criminal law or Hudud. Because you can see today, Suddenly, Anwar also supports. Other than Karpal Singh, I have not seen the others DAP's respond. We are comforted that UMNO never talks about hudud. So today we should ask DAP, if PAS adhere to the position, what is your stand Do not wait until the edicts are imposed and the voters become the scapegoats, because they fight each others among the leaders. To me, we are very clear. We are confronted with Pakatan trying to implement hudud and MCA objects.
