PKR president Anwar Ibrahim said he was satisfied with the meeting with Dr Mahathir Mohamad amid speculation that the latter is attempting to form a new federal government without Pakatan Harapan.

“Just got back from Dr Mahathir’s residence. We discussed a few things, and I am satisfied with his stand that we should give priority to principles. The reform agenda must continue,” he said in a statement.

When asked if there will be a change in federal government, Anwar said: “We should not easily give in to groups who want to betray the people’s trust given to us in the last general election”.

“But I can’t say anything (else),” he added.

“It is sufficient to say that our meeting went well. I am touched by his stand on the reforms and not bowing to the group that wants to seize power without outlining the reform agenda.”

Anwar is expected to reveal more during a press conference after chairing an emergency PKR meeting today.  

This morning, Anwar, Deputy Prime Minister Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng and Amanah president Mohamad Sabu met Dr Mahathir at his residence in Seri Kembangan. – February 24, 2020.
