After Melaka defeat, Anwar hints he won’t quit as opposition chief

[superadmin]

BANGI: Anwar Ibrahim has played down calls for him to resign as the opposition leader following Pakatan Harapan’s loss at the Melaka polls.

The PKR president, however, said the buck stopped with him when it came to the issue of PH welcoming two former Umno assemblymen into its fold – attributed by some to have contributed to the coalition’s loss in Saturday’s elections.

PH only managed to win five of the 28 seats, leading to Pahang DAP secretary Lee Chin Chen calling for Anwar to step down.

Anwar, however, brushed it off as an “opinion”.

“It is just an opinion, but as I said before, in giving such views, we should not be seen as arrogant,” he told reporters here.
