PKR has changed approach, now wants dissenters back, says Rafizi
GEORGE TOWN: Parti Bersama Malaysia (Bersama) co-founder Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli said PKR’s recent congress reflected a change in the party’s political approach.
Parti Bersama Malaysia (Bersama) co-founder, Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli, revealed that PKR's recent congress marked a shift in the party's political strategy. In the past, PKR leaders typically urged dissenting members to leave, but this year, there were no similar calls during the congress. PKR President Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim actively encouraged former members to return during his speech at a gathering with Bersama members in Penang.
Rafizi also criticized Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil's acknowledgment of a communication gap between PKR and the public. While Fahmi admitted the issue, Rafizi questioned whether that admission constituted taking responsibility, noting Fahmi's lack of resignation. Rafizi further criticized the party for relying on nostalgia to address past difficulties rather than presenting a clear roadmap for the future.
He argued that political parties cannot continue using outdated strategies, as Malaysia's society and economy have evolved significantly.
