Anwar's aide wants DAP and Amanah to state their stand behind Anwar

DAP and Amanah should state their stand behind PKR president Anwar Ibrahim, said Perak PKR chief Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak.

Farhash (photo) who is also Anwar's political secretary, described the actions and statements by DAP and Amanah for not standing firm behind Anwar as "disheartening and unbecoming of a leader."

"DAP and Amanah should state their stand behind the man who brought us all together.

"Is this how you repay Anwar for a friendship built over 20 years?

"Anwar faced many challenges and was often labelled as being too liberal and distant from the Malay community for his loyalty to DAP," he said.

Borrowing DAP organising secretary Anthony Loke's remarks - "There must be a clear direction of what is the way forward.”

"For PKR it means that we will never let Anwar and Malaysians be taken for a ride ever again," Farhash said.

In an exclusive interview with Malaysiakini, Loke (photo) had revealed that in a meeting on June 13, DAP and Amanah were in favour of the Dr Mahathir Mohamad-Anwar combination as the prime minister and deputy prime minister respectively.

This was after the suggestion for the Anwar-Mukhriz Mahathir combination could no longer be pursued due to the lack of support from Harapan's allies.

Earlier today, Anwar had apologised on behalf of Pakatan Harapan for not coming to a decision.

Meanwhile, PKR chief organising secretary Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad said it is unfair to push the Anwar to accept Mahathir as the candidate for prime minister due to the latter's past record under the previous Harapan government.

"Mahathir has a record in the issue of the power transition which caused uncertainty during the Harapan administration," said the Setiawangsa MP.

Nik Nazmi (photo) also pointed his finger to Mahathir with regard to the Sheraton Move.

"Part of the political crisis which we faced after the Sheraton Move was caused by his (Mahathir) decision to resign (as the prime minister) without consulting comrades in Harapan.

"He was also confident that lawmakers from Umno and PAS were with him."

Naming Anwar as the best candidate, Nik Nazmi said the country needs a new beginning.

"A clean government which focuses on fair economy for the people," he said. - Mkini
