KOTA BAHARU: Kelantan PAS deputy commissioner Datuk Mohd Amar Nik Abdullah said the state government will not prevent the move by the federal government to give the compassionate fund to the people of Kelantan via the Federal Development Department (FDD).

Mohd Amar, who is also the Chairman of the State Committee on Islamic Development, Education and Dakwah, said what the state government was demanding was the oil royalty and not compassionate payment.

KELANTAN Pas is on its own when it comes to dealing with problems related to the State. That’s because Pas headquarters believes its State leaders are capable of handling problems independently. Party secretary-general Datuk Mustapa Ali said there was no need for interference in State affairs.
