PETALING JAYA: A youth leader from Sabah PKR has demanded that DAP explain its position on Anwar Ibrahim’s position as leader of Pakatan Harapan (PH) and the opposition.

Assemblyman Luyang Phoong said that when Anwar did not follow through on his earlier claim to have the numbers to form the government, many questioned and mocked PH’s credibility.
In a statement today, Sabah PKR Youth Chief Information Officer Razeef Rakimin said the DAP should explain whether Phoong’s call represents the official position of the party.
He said that since the “Sheraton Move,” which saw the fall of the PH-led federal government, Anwar has been accepted by all PH components as the PH leader and the opposition.

Meanwhile, Amanah Youth chief Shazni Munir described calls for Anwar to be replaced as opposition leader as “mischievous.”
“The reality is that within Pakatan Harapan, there are no calls for the opposition leader to be changed, apart from Anwar’s own statements before this that he would be willing to step back if he were a drag,” he said during a dialog. titled “Kita Bincang: 108 Suara Terkuat Pembankang” last night.
But, Shazni said, none of the three parties said he was a drag or asked him to resign.
