Pas more interested in foreign policy than Tabung Haji issue, says Fahmi
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s position on the China-Taiwan issue remains consistent and has never changed since the administration of former prime minister Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, said Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil.
Malaysia's stance on the China-Taiwan issue remains unchanged since the time of former Prime Minister Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil asserted. Pas secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan has claimed that Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's recent comments in an international media interview have limited Malaysia's diplomatic space, but Fahmi dismissed this as untrue.
He explained that the Prime Minister merely expressed what has consistently been Malaysia's foreign policy for many years, as maintained by Wisma Putra. Fahmi expressed disappointment with Pas' focus on foreign policy issues while ignoring domestic matters affecting Muslims, particularly the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on Tabung Haji.
He criticized Pas for commenting on unrelated matters but not addressing the issues raised in the RCI report about the Muslim institution's financial misconduct. Fahmi emphasized the government's commitment to restoring Tabung Haji's standing and urged the opposition to focus on pressing domestic issues.
