Rasuah dilakukan individu bukan parti, kata Hamzah
Presiden Wawasan berkata dakwaan rasuah terhadap individu tidak seharusnya menjejaskan kerjasama antara BN dan PN.
Hamzah Zainudin, president of the Wawasan (Vision) party, has stated that associating an entire party with corruption solely due to the misconduct of an individual is unjust. During a FMT interview, he emphasized that perceiving an entire party as corrupt due to the actions of one individual is deemed unfair. According to Zainudin, it is the individual who committed the corruption, not the party itself.
He stressed that linking a party to corruption is unjust to any party and undermines the cohesion effort between the Barisan Nasional (BN) and Perikatan Nasional (PN) parties. The perception of a party engaging in corruption does not benefit Malaysia's unity, as stated Zainudin, highlighting that the PN-BN unity effort would not hold meaning if parties were associated with corruption.
Although the unity narrative combining Malay-Islam was intertwined with the corruption accusation, it was also tainted by allegations of misuse of power, referring to the 1MDB scandal and the recent Director General of the Islamic Endowment Fund (TH) Committee of Inquiry report released on July 29, four years after the investigation.
Zainudin questioned whether the Malay unity agenda would continue to be a significant consideration as the election approaches, asserting that the current political landscape demands the inclusion of national unity as a main agenda. However, he acknowledged the reality of Malaysia's demographics in forging a politically acceptable agenda for all groups.
The opposition leader stressed that unity among the majority, combined with the participation of other communities, could yield a shared goal for the nation. He emphasized that if the majority is not united, it would be challenging to ensure the achievement of a progressive nation. Zainudin stated that if everyone shares the same thought, goal, and agenda, unity could serve as a pathway for the betterment of the people, the nation, and the future.
He expressed Wawasan's readiness to act as a bridge among various parties, highlighting it as one of their key agendas.
