Anwar Ibrahim, the political leader touted as Malaysia’s next premier, said there are attempts to topple the ruling Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition which are being orchestrated by members of his own party along with PM Mahathir Mohamad’s political group.
Anwar, who is president of the People’s Justice Party (PKR), said some in his group and Mahathir’s Bersatu party met with the country’s king on Sunday. He was responding to a question at a religious sermon streamed on Facebook.
“Right now we are waiting for information,” Anwar said. “But we know there’s an attempt to topple PH to form a new government. And it involves our former friends in Bersatu as well as a few who betrayed PKR. So we wait first. They have met with the king [on Sunday] and there’s been no announcement.”
A spokesperson for Bersatu couldn’t be reached for comment on Anwar’s remarks.
Azmin Ali, who is deputy president of PKR, was reported to have met with the king, The Star newspaper said.
