Anwar to BN: Don't punish opposition states

  • 9 years ago
As the Malaysian stock market continues to roil in response to the stunning results of the weekend's elections, PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim today assured investors of his coalition's free-market stance and cautioned the BN to put the economy ahead of its own political dilemmas.

"Let me caution them: whatever is the political problem -- the infighting -- they should not sacrifice the economy and the public," he said. "I may be the opposition. I will not do anything to disrupt the economic performance of this country."
