The political ideologies difference between PAS and DAP are distinctive.

Political analyst, Associate Professor Dr Ahmad Martadha is of the opinion that the previous opinion is temporary in nature and it was a just a matter of time that the collapsing coalition would eventually reach its boiling point.

DAP's decision to declare it had ceased its existence following PAS muktamar's resolution calling for the severing of ties with the DAP was imminent, he said.

Ahmad also added that PAS’s insistence to implement hudud and DAP’s secular ideology is a hindrance in the former’s quest to reach a resolution pact at all.

“Both ideologies hold no strength to be compromised in reaching a consensus. They may seem to be on the same page to reach their aim that is possibly similar by compromising their respective goals to reach their desired outcomes, respectively,” said Ahmad.

He stressed that PAS’s grassroots voices which strongly reverberated in unison at the recently-concluded 61st annual congress had only intensified the heat, “but progressively multiple issues touching on the root problems concerning hudud for instance, would only see the strong cooperation and harmony between the two parties failed to sustain.”

The quarters known to resist the progressive group in PAS and refused to budge from their decisions to continue the tie with DAP had been a catalyst for conflict in vulnerable parts of the Islamic party.

He also added that the breakup would work to Barisan Nasional’s advantage for the 14th General Election in solidifying BN’s position to clinch two-third majority.

Pakatan Rakyat, a loose pact, was formed on April 1, 2008 by the DAP, PAS and PKR after the 12th general election.
