00:00We've already played a more prominent role.
00:04If it's not what to do, it's not a prominent role in our country.
00:10Perikatan Nasional Chairman Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar says the time has come for PAS to take on a bigger national role,
00:17pointing to the party's electoral strength and the changing political landscape.
00:22Samsuri said the 2022 general election results showed PAS emerging as the dominant force in parliament,
00:29surpassing all other parties in terms of the number of seats won, with 43.
00:34The PAS vice president said this parliamentary composition signaled that the Islamic party should no longer play a secondary role
00:41in PN,
00:42having played second fiddle to Bersatu since the coalition's founding.
00:46He said the Islamic party could no longer be satisfied with being just a jaguh kampung, or village champion,
00:53if it wanted to play a more dominant national role.
00:55So, if you want to be a really a real champion, you need to come out in the open.
01:00Tak boleh bertanding di pengkat kampung je.
01:02If you want to be a real champion, you need to come out.
01:05Whether at the state level, or the federal level, or international level.
01:08Tentulah kita ada perancangan dan ada strategi yang jelas bagaimana untuk kita menepani masyarakat,
01:13pelbagai kaum yang sangat kompleks yang ada pada hari ni.
01:17Because that's the true nature of our country.
01:19Kita tak dapat lari.
01:21Kita tak dapat lari.
01:21Kita tak dapat lari.
01:22Kita tak dapat lari.
