KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 20 — Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is set to meet Transport Minister Anthony Loke to discuss his resignation, following the recent conditional pardon granted to former Prime Minister Najib Razak. Anwar confirmed that Loke had expressed his intention to step down during an emergency DAP central executive committee meeting, but has yet to submit a formal resignation letter.
The Prime Minister emphasized the importance of listening to Loke's views, as the minister has been a consistent opponent of measures that could be perceived as weak or lenient towards corruption, particularly when action is taken against many others, including those involved in petty corruption. Anwar stated that he will meet Loke to hear his perspective before making any decision regarding his resignation.
