Abdul Karim: Kita just day-dreaming

by Zoee Hilson. 

BAU: Parti Kita (Kesejahteraan Insan Tanah Air) will not win even a single seat, what more to say becoming a ruling party, during the next general election.

Assistant Minister for Youth Development Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah, who gave this prediction, said Kita president Datuk Zaid Ibrahim must be daydreaming for saying on Friday that the party aimed to be a ruling party.

Karim added that as far as Sarawak was concerned, the party is an unknown entity.

“Maybe in Peninsular Malaysia there are members of Kita which is a splinter of PKR, but I doubt that it can capture any seat, or even one seat. This is just daydreaming. I would say their impact is totally zero. We don’t even know who the leaders of Kita are in Sarawak,” he said at a Hari Raya Aidiladha event at Surau Nur Akmal in Kampung Blimbin, Bau, yesterday.

Karim, who is also Asajaya assemblyman and chief political secretary to the chief minister, added that presently the party did not have a single assemblyman, so their dream was really something “too farfetched”.

In a news report by Bernama yesterday, Zaid said that the party was not after the prime minister’s post and that they were not a nuisance as labelled by some quarters.

Claiming that Kita was the best alternative political party for the people because it fought for the welfare of Malaysias, Zaid said: “We aim to be a ruling party but we are not after the prime minister’s post…this is why we hope to put up candidates in suitable areas to ensure victory in the elections.”

At the event yesterday, which was organised by the state Harakah Islamiah (Hikmah), four cattles were slaughtered to be distributed to all Muslim villagers at Kampung Blimbin.

There are over 400 Muslims in the area.
