Dasar Satu China bermula sejak era Abdul Razak, kata Anwar

Malaysia's Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated that China's founding principle has been in place since the era of former Prime Minister Abdul Razak Hussein and remains unchanged, according to his recent interview with Al Jazeera. Anwar expressed Malaysia's respect for China's stance on Taiwan and believed that an amicable approach is the best way to resolve the issue. He affirmed that China is one China and has been accepted by all parties.

Anwar's comments have been welcomed by Beijing, while Taiwan has criticized them, warning that strong support for Anwar's alignment with China could undermine Taiwan's confidence in investing in Malaysia. Anwar reiterated that his position aligns with Malaysia's longstanding principles, but noted that the way he conveyed it in the Al Jazeera interview might provoke negative reactions.

Regarding potential cooperation with the Barisan Nasional (BN) in the Melaka state election, Anwar stated that it will be discussed by the Prakatan Harapan (PH) election management committee headed by Amirudin Shari and his deputy Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. "It will be discussed by the committee," he said. The BN's Secretary-General Zahid Hamidi previously mentioned that cooperation with the National Pride (PN) for the Melaka state election would continue, but BN has indicated openness to collaborating with PH, though formal discussions with the PN have not yet begun.
