PARTAI ISLAM SE-MALAYSIA (PAS) DAN PARTAI KEADILAN SEJAHTERA (PKS) SEBAGAI PARTAI ISLAM PENDUKUNG DEMOKRASI PKS PADA PEMILU
ABSTRACT: The article compares
the achievement of Partai Islam se-Malaysia (PAS) and Partai Keadilan Sejahtera
(PKS) in the latest general election held in 2013 in Malaysia and in 2014 in
Indonesia. The writer finds that the political performance of PAS and PKS has indicated
differently contrast results. While political electability of PAS in the 2013
Malaysia’s general election has disappointed this party, PKS has successfully
proved that surveys held by a number of survey institutes—predicting that the
party would cease within the 2014 Indonesia’s national election—were totally
false. Many political figures of PAS have failed to gain positions in the
legislative assembly. Meanwhile, in viewing PKS’s political performance during
the 2014 national election, one may assume that this party was luckily survive.
This is because, a number of surveys conducted before the election had
predicted that PKS could be considered lucky when it was able to gain five
percent of vote, as its former president has been suspected of being corrupt
for his involvement in cows import. However, the fact shows that PKS has not
only magnificently survived but it was even able to gain almost seven percent
of voters’ vote. Unfortunately, PKS was unsuccessful to achieve its political
target to be the biggest three of national vote.
