Anwar: No rift in cabinet, cooperation remains strong

PUTRAJAYA, Malaysia - Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has firmly stated that the relationships and cooperation among cabinet ministers remain robust, despite claims of a rift spreading across social media platforms. While various portrayals on social media may paint a different picture, Anwar assured that the government and cabinet members operate harmoniously, driven by a collective consensus.

He emphasized that even when it appears differently on social media, the essence of cooperation and consensus among cabinet members is strong. This consensus, he explained, is crucial for the government's ability to plan and execute policies for Malaysia's future. An international news portal recently cited sources claiming that Anwar's relationship with Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had deteriorated over several issues, including the opposition party's decision to contest against Pakatan Harapan in the recent elections in Johor and Negri Sembilan. The report also suggested that this alleged tension led to shorter cabinet meetings than usual.
