‘I don’t want to fight with him,’ says Anwar, dodging Dr M’s criticism of him

KUALA LUMPUR: PKR president Anwar Ibrahim has dodged criticism from Dr Mahathir Mohamad, saying he does not want to get into a fight with the former prime minister.

This comes after the Langkawi MP slammed Anwar for being untrustworthy over unfulfilled promises, after the PKR president’s claim to have the numbers to form a new government in September last year led to nothing.

During a press conference today, Anwar kept the door open to working with Mahathir again to topple the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government, saying Pakatan Harapan (PH) will not base its cooperation with other MPs on parties or individuals but on principles.

When asked about the criticism levelled against him by Mahathir, he declined comment.
