End prejudice against opposition, let’s have progressive democracy, says Umno VP

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: The prejudices against the opposition must be done away with and more progressive politics be adopted in the wake of the prime minister’s pact with Pakatan Harapan (PH), an Umno vice-president said today.

Mohamed Khaled Nordin added that the negative perception against the government must also change.

“Both sides are important players in a healthy democracy and are needed for better governance,” he said in a statement.

The country’s politics, the former federal minister said, must not remain in the old ways and there was a need to shift to a more open and progressive democracy.

He went on to express hope that the “huge step” taken by the prime minister would be followed with comprehensive action by both sides.
