Kelantan short-lists names for oil royalty panel


KOTA BARU: The Kelantan government is finalising a list of names to be submitted to the Sultan of Kelantan Sultan Muhammad V to decide who will represent the state in the special committee to review oil royalties set up by the Federal Government.
Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat declined to say whether the individuals were politicians, academics or experts.
“Yes ... we already have people in mind to represent Kelantan and would be submitting two or three names to the Kelantan palace,” he said.
Nik Aziz declined to comment whether Gua Musang MP Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah was among the short-listed candidates.
He was speaking to reporters after presenting diploma scrolls to students of the Sultan Ismail Petra International Islamic College at Balai Islam, Lundang here on Tuesday.
When asked about PAS deputy president Mohamad Sabu's statement that PAS would be pushing for hudud law should Pakatan win the general election, Nik Aziz, who is also the PAS spiritual adviser, replied that the most important thing to do was to win the 13th general election.
“It is very important to win the general election first ... make sure it is an Islamist movement that wins, may it be PAS or Ikhwan Muslimin or Jemaah Islamiah,” he said.
To another question, Nik Aziz said that he would prefer to leave the fate of former PAS deputy president Nasharuddin Mat Isa to the Syura council.
