Kuala lumpur: Angkatan Muda Keadilan (AMK) has described attempts to link Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to the turmoil within the Opposition as a desperate effort to conceal the bloc's leadership weaknesses. AMK chief Muhammad Kamil Abdul Munim argued that it is unreasonable to blame Anwar for every internal crisis affecting the Opposition, asserting that the issues stem from power struggles and disputes over seat allocations.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, Muhammad Kamil refuted allegations suggesting Anwar's involvement in 'high-level political manoeuvring' within the Opposition, remarks originally made by Marzuki, the former principal private secretary to the eighth prime minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. He emphasized that Marzuki himself acknowledged the internal turmoil within the Opposition due to seat disputes and differing political interests, questioning why Anwar should be held responsible under such circumstances.
Muhammad Kamil further stated that the current crisis affecting the Opposition highlights its leadership weaknesses and failure to manage its coalition, rather than any interference from external parties. He criticized efforts to revive previously failed political cooperation, which he believes demonstrate the Opposition's lack of ideas and inability to offer a convincing agenda to the people.
He added that alliances like Perikatan Nasional (PN) and Muafakat Nasional (MN) have failed to present a clear economic plan and robust development agenda. Instead, they continue to rely on politics of hatred and narrowly exploit racial and religious sentiments to gain support. Meanwhile, Muhammad Kamil pointed out that the government led by Anwar remains focused on strengthening the national economy, attracting investments, and enhancing Malaysia's economic resilience.
Highlighting Anwar's recent working visit to Tokyo, Muhammad Kamil noted that the Prime Minister continues to prioritize economic strengthening and safeguarding the people's interests. He lamented that some parties remain trapped in old political games, preoccupied with political manoeuvres and backdoor schemes, while the people seek solutions to pressing issues such as the cost of living, employment, and national development.
