BACHOK, Dec 17 (Bernama) -- A total 120 PAS supporters in Kampung Beoh, here, announced today they were leaving the party en masse to set up a new Umno branch.
Their Umno membership forms were submitted by group leader Mohd Nor Jusoh, 54, to Umno Bachok division chief Datuk Awang Adek Hussin, witnessed by almost 300 local residents.
"I supported PAS 100 per cent in the past because I was influenced by its Islamic policy, but sadly, the party is only using Islam as a slogan," he told reporters after submitting the membership forms.
He said he joined Umno as he wanted a change and because PAS had clearly failed to do so although it had been ruling Kelantan for 22 years now. He said many more individuals would be following in the group''s footstep to join Umno.
Meanwhile, Dr Awang Adek said their applications would be speedily processed to enable them to form a new Umno branch, to be called Redang Umno branch.
It will be the 151st branch in the division.
