KUALA LUMPUR – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (Tambun-PH) has declared that he will not hold his tongue if accusations against key political individuals are found to be untrue.
Speaking during the Finance Ministry’s winding-up speech on Budget 2023 in the Dewan Rakyat today, Anwar stressed that he will not remain silent if allegations of power abuse are unfairly levelled against any individual.
“Slander and criticism can be (thrown at) anyone, but I am here to say that I do not hold my (prime ministerial) title to prosecute, pressure, and oppress anyone, (because) I know what selective prosecution is like,” Anwar, who is also Pakatan Harapan chairman, said.
