PAS lebih berminat isu dasar luar negara berbanding TH, kata Fahmi

Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil questioned PAS's stance on foreign policy matters, contrasting it with Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's focus on the same area. Despite his concerns, Fahmi acknowledged the recommendations of the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) into the Tabung Haji (TH), which exposed mismanagement, inadequate accounting, and investment practices of the institution between 2014 and 2017, including substantial losses.

He wondered why certain parties, including fellow PAS members, were making comments far from the issue, yet remained silent about the RCI's findings regarding TH's malpractice. Fahmi urged them to focus on reviewing and discussing the matter, as they had fled the House of Representatives when the opposition hoped for their input.

PAS had previously stated that Malaysia's position on One China was not an issue, but questioned Anwar Ibrahim's assertion that Taiwan was part of China, and the comparison made between Malaysia and military intervention to prevent any country from withdrawing from the union. The Deputy Chief of the General Staff, Takiyuddin Hassan, in a statement, said that Anwar's remarks, made in an interview with Al Jazeera, had placed Malaysia in a difficult diplomatic position.

However, Fahmi argued that Malaysia's position on the China and Taiwan issue was consistent and had not changed since the Abdul Razak Hussein government. According to him, Anwar's stance is consistent with the foreign policy stance of Putra Palace for a long time.
