There are no non-Muslims who want to become prime minister of Malaysia, Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said today.

This is in response to the motion passed by the PAS Ulama council at its muktamar yesterday to amend the Federal Constitution so that only a Malay-Muslim can become the prime minister.

"I am quite sad about a motion at the PAS muktamar in Kedah, which seems like they are trying to bring up racial and extreme sentiments that the prime minister must be Malay and Muslim, as if there are non-Muslims who want to claim that position," Lim said...
