In 1999, riding a groundswell of popular protest after the arrest and conviction of former Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, PAS allied itself with the Democratic Action Party ( DAP ) and Keadilan ( PKR ), founded by Anwar Ibrahim's wife Wan Azizah by forming a coalition known as Barisan Alternatif.

The coalition is made up of more than 50 parties and organisations, including the Communist Party ( PCCh ), the Humanist Party ( PH ) ( until 2009 ), Izquierda Cristiana ( Christian Left ), MIR, the MPMR ( Movimiento Patriótico Manuel Rodríguez ), the Bloque por el Socialismo ( BS — which itself gathers three parties: Izquierda Socialista ( Socialist Left ), the MPS ( Movimiento Por el Socialismo and the Partido Alternativa Socialista, PAS ), Identidad Rodriguista ( IR ), Movimiento Fuerza Ciudadana ( FC ), Cambio Democrático, Partido Radical de Chile ( PRCh ), Revolución Democratizadora ( RD ), Generación 80 ( G-80 ), Partido de los Trabajadores ( PT ) and the Juventudes Comunistas de Chile.

PAS decided to rename itself the Romanian Communist Party at an extraordinary party congress in July 2010, placing itself in the tradition of the party of the same name that ruled Romania under the leadership of Nicolae Ceauşescu from 1965 to 1989.

The PAS was defined to itself as a humanist party and rejected to be fit in in the traditional spectrum of right, center or left, nevertheless was considered of right al to be its main one of precurors and to originate almost all its members of the old Mexican Democratic Party, party of right of the years 80s that managed to have an important presence in zones of the shoal, this at the same time there was itself National Synarchist Union.

The Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) promotes a more Islamist political agenda, while the Democratic Action Party ( DAP ) promotes a more democratic socialist economic policy.

* Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party ( PAS ), a political party in Malaysia

The Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party () ( Jawi: ڤرتي اسلام س-مليسيا ) commonly known as PAS or Pas, is an Islamist political party in Malaysia and is currently headed by Dato ' Seri Abdul Hadi Awang.

PAS often opposed and criticised the Barisan Nasional coalition parties, especially with Malay / Muslim dominant party, UMNO due to their collaborations with non-Muslim political parties.

As an Islamic political party, PAS takes a lead at local level in opposing forms of entertainment that will damage society's morals.

Currently, two of Malaysia's states, Kelantan and Kedah, are governed by PAS which is a conservative Islamic political party, with a proclaimed goal of establishing an Islamic state.

Apart from 1999 to 2004 where he lost his seat due to the Chinese disenchantment with DAP entering into a political pact with the Islamist PAS for the general elections, Lim represented various constituencies in four states:

However, Barisan Nasional lost an additional four states ( Penang, Kedah, Perak and Selangor ) to the loose coalition of opposition parties composed of PAS, Democratic Action Party ( DAP ) and People's Justice Party ( PKR ) in the 2008 elections, which has been termed by the Opposition as the ' political tsunami ' of Malaysia.

At the same time, an Islamist party, the Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) and a Chinese socialist party, the Democratic Action Party ( DAP ), gained increasing support, at the expense of UMNO and the MCA respectively.

In the 2004 general election, Abdullah Badawi's first as prime minister, he delivered a landslide victory for his party's coalition National Front ( of which UMNO is the dominant party ) by winning 198 out of 220 seats in parliament and wresting control of the Terengganu state government from the Islamist opposition Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ), as well as coming close to capturing the traditional PAS stronghold of Kelantan.

But of late, many Malay politicians have strongly tried to revive the spirit of Malay nationalism and patriotism but with more emphasize on Malay unity and go back to Islam doctrine as to counter PAS claimed that the party is the one and only Islamic party in the country.

When the ulama faction in UMNO broke away from the party, they formed an association called Persatuan Islam Sa-Malaya ( PIS ) ( Pan-Malayan Islamic Association ), abbreviated as PAS.

Eventually, the dual-membership clause in the party charter was revoked and PAS began to emerge as a distinct entity.

For the most parts of PAS ' history, the party has generally only targeted Malay or Muslim supporters.

PAS became the leading opposition party in Parliament.

The party was joined by the Democratic Action Party ( DAP ), the Malaysian People's Party ( PRM ) and the Malaysian Islamic Party ( PAS ) in a broad based electoral alliance known as Barisan Alternatif ( Alternative Front ) to take on the ruling Barisan Nasional ( National Front ) coalition in the 1999 general elections.

Razaleigh's planning is reputed to have been the main reason the Barisan Nasional ( BN ) coalition, of which UMNO is a member, almost totally defeated the opposition Islamic party of PAS in the 1978 general election and the Kelantan state elections of the same year.

He has been at loggerheads with Mahathir as well as fellow opposition party PAS over the issue.

In 2008 Malaysian general election, the coalition of DAP-PKR-PAS later known as the Pakatan Rakyat won 29 out of 40 state seats contested, in which DAP is the largest winning party with 19 seats, PKR 9 seats, and PAS 1, and thus defeated the former ruling coalition Barisan Nasional for the authority to rule Penang for the next five years.

* 21 March-Malaysian Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi leads UMNO to a resounding victory in the General Elections, checking the advance of Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) that aims to establish Malaysia as an Islamist theocratic country.

Malaysia has had regular elections since 1974, and although campaigning is reasonably free at election time, it is in effect a one-party state, with the UMNO-controlled National Front usually winning nearly all the seats, while the DAP wins some Chinese urban seats and the PAS some rural Malay ones.

The opposition Barisan Alternatif coalition, led by the Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ), increased its seats to 42.

A part of the deeply conservative Malay heartlands, Kelantan has been ruled by the Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) since 1990, with re-elections in 1995, 1999 and 2004.

Gerakan, PPP, PAS, and several former opposition parties in East Malaysia joined the coalition, which was renamed as the National Front ).

On October 24, 1999, the four largest opposition parties — the Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ), the Democratic Action Party ( DAP ), the National Justice Party ( Keadilan ) and the Malaysian People's Party -- announced an electoral alliance and issued a joint manifesto.

From the very beginning, the alliance had been strained by PAS's unwillingness to publicly renounce its aim of making Malaysia an Islamic state, a position that was anathema to Malaysia's 45 % non-Muslim minority, although a temporary compromise was achieved when PAS did not include the issue in the joint manifesto.

The DAP is one of the three major opposition parties in Malaysia, along with the PKR and PAS, that are seen as electable alternatives to the Barisan Nasional coalition of parties.

Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) managed to retain only seven of its 27 seats.

Nik Aziz has been known to command support from non-Muslims in Malaysia and has played a leading role during PAS ' increase in popularity among non-Muslims.

Kelantan has been a stronghold of the Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) since 1959.

This was due to the Islamic Party of Malaysia ( PAS ) threatening citizens in less developed parts of the country with eternal damnation if they did not vote for the PAS and that a vote for them would be rewarded by God.

While a diagnosis of PAS is made based on the child's symptoms, Gardner stated that any change in custody should be based primarily on the symptom level of the alienating parent.

PAS has been extensively criticized by members of the legal and mental health community, who state that PAS should not be admissible in child custody hearings based on both science and law.

Proponents of PAS concur that large scale systematic controlled studies into PAS's validity and reliability are required, supplementing a single small study in 2004 which suggested practitioners could come to a consensus based on written reports.

Concern has been expressed that PAS lacks adequate scientific support to be considered a syndrome and that Gardner has promoted PAS as a syndrome based on a vague clustering of behaviors.
