KUALA TERENGGANU: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has admitted that the three members of Pakatan Rakyat have differences of opinion.

However, the PKR adviser said it was normal to have such differences and a healthy debate over issues.

"Ronnie Liu (of the DAP) may say Christianity is better, while I may say Islam is better but overall we agree on our common goal which is to govern this country better," he told an audience of several thousand during a ceramah for the Kuala Terengganu by-election.

Anwar said Pakatan Rakyat leaders have respect for each other and it was only Umno which was using the mass media to create confusion.

He said PAS can win the by-election as "the voters are intelligent enough to see Umno's dirty tactics".

On hudud laws, Anwar said Pakatan Rakyat has no intention to impose it on non-Muslims.

Opposition leaders such as DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang, PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang, PAS spiritual adviser Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat spoke at the rally near the beach front here.

Anwar also urged Pakatan Rakyat leaders to study the success of PAS in Kelantan under Nik Aziz who has led the state since 1990.
