The PAS research centre has urged DAP to respond to a book authored by Iain Buchanan, an academic from New Zealand titled "Sang Nila Utama and the Lion of Judah: Dominionism and Christian Zionism in Malaysia".

The centre's director Mohd Zuhdi Marzuki claimed that Buchanan's book, which was published in 2015, clearly mentioned the involvement of DAP leaders such as Lim Guan Eng and Hannah Yeoh.

"For example, from pages 26 to 34, under the subheading 'Dominionism: Lesson from Penang', the writer mentioned the involvement of the Penang government headed by DAP.

"Lim and Yeoh are mentioned under this subheading. The PAS research centre views this as a more important matter which DAP must respond to," he added in a statement.
