Anwar’s hands tied by dealing with strange bedfellows, says expert

PETALING JAYA: In making his Cabinet appointments, Anwar Ibrahim’s hands may have been tied by having to deal with “strange bedfellows”, says anti-graft activist Edmund Terence Gomez.
Gomez reiterated his stance that it was not advisable for the prime minister to also be finance minister, especially from the point of good governance and the need to provide checks and balances, which Anwar has long advocated.
The finance minister’s post could very well be more powerful than that of prime minister as the former controls the government’s coffers, said Gomez, a noted political economist.
“But let’s put it in perspective. The government that has been formed is one of strange bedfellows coming together on the King’s command after the hung Parliament,” said Gomez.
