Former Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is urging a renewed dialogue with Transport Minister Anthony Loke regarding the latter's recent resignation, insisting that Anwar has not yet accepted Loke's decision to leave the Cabinet. During a PH grand finale rally in Alor Gajah, Melaka, Anwar expressed his dissatisfaction with the High Court's recent ruling that permitted former Prime Minister Najib Razak to serve his prison sentence under house arrest.
He defended Loke, highlighting his honesty, trustworthiness, and commitment to public service, as well as his contributions to improving public transport and the lives of Malaysians.
