KOTA TINGGI – Perikatan Nasional information chief Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali today told Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to be more responsible when commenting on the emergency proclamation.
Azmin, who is also a Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia Supreme Council member, said the opposition leader should not drag the public into the matter when what they needed was the government’s assistance and support.
“This is a public issue. This is an issue of the people’s safety and health. Don’t continue to politicise it.
“They can give their views and criticisms to the government but don’t play politics at the expense of the people,” he told reporters after presenting donations during the humanitarian aid mission of the International Trade and Industry Ministry and its agencies at the Social Welfare Department office here today.
He said this when commenting on claims by the Port Dickson MP on Thursday that he had written to all the MPs asking them to write to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to revoke the proclamation of emergency.
The Parti Keadilan Rakyat president was also reported to have said that he hoped the Agong would order that a Parliament sitting be held immediately before January 31. – Bernama, January 17, 2021
