Of Anwar, PKR & PAS

Anwar and PKR president Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail recently journeyed to Kelantan. The STAR reported that in a first official meeting between PKR advisor, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, and Nik Abdul Aziz, Anwar said PKR had invited PAS to merge. According to the STAR report, titled :: PAS spurns PKR's offer :: Nik Abdul Aziz told Anwar, "There is no need to dissolve PKR," adding that history had proven that PAS could work with any party.

BERNAMA has also reported about this PKR-PAS meeting, its report was titled :: PAS, Keadilan To Discuss Coalition, no mention was made of a PKR-PAS merger being proposed and spurned! The report mentioned that PAS and PKR expressed their desire to form a coalition to enhance their impact on the country's political scene.
Other excerpts from the BERNAMA report ::

Speaking to reporters, Anwar said the issue of merger was dependent on the discussions to be held between the two parties.
"I am optimistic (since) there is progress from the efforts that we made before this. As for a coalition, that will depend on the outcome of our discussions," he said.

Reuters, probably quoting the STAR has also reporting about the PKR-PAS meeting under this heading :: Malaysia's Islamic opposition rejects merger offer.

So was there a merger offer made by PKR to PAS? Was the offer spurned? Was it just a figment of a reporter's imagination?
A coalition and a merger certainly are not the same thing, lets await further spins and clarification.

MALAYSIA, a great place to be in, BUT we can, will and must make HER better.

You may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.
