‘Find another Prime Minister if you want me silent on graft’, Anwar says

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has vowed to continue tackling corruption and misuse of public funds, despite criticism from those demanding his silence. Speaking at the launch of special financial assistance for taxi, rental car, and school bus drivers, Anwar emphasized the struggles faced by ordinary Malaysians, including the need for leaders who understand their financial pressures.

He highlighted past corruption scandals, such as 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB), Tabung Haji, and FELDA, as issues that require corrective action. Anwar stressed the importance of prioritising essential services, including education, healthcare, and welfare, while ensuring national resources benefit the people. He called for leaders who are committed to delivering on their vision, rather than those who exploit public office for personal gain.
