Anwar invites Mahathir to advise the Opposition
The Star 3 Nov 2006 - KUALA TERENGGANU: Former deputy
prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has ironically
come to the defence of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
Anwar said Umno leaders were forgetting Dr Mahathirs
immense contributions.
He also invited the former prime minister to serve as
adviser to the Opposition.
The Parti Keadilan Rakyat adviser said: Despite my
differences with Dr Mahathir, I pity him somewhat, as
he is being rebuked and criticised by Umno leaders who
had once honoured him.
He had led the country for 22 years and contributed
immensely to the country and now it looks like Umno
leaders are forgetting his contributions.
I am not supporting him but he should be accorded
respect as a former premier.
On his invitation to Dr Mahathir to be adviser to the
Opposition parties, Anwar said: I might have been
mistreated in the past and could have had differences
with him, but this will not be a hindrance.
As long as he is a citizen, I respect his views, and
any attempts by him to join the Opposition will not be
blocked by me, Anwar told reporters after a PKR Hari
Raya gathering at Pekan Batu 6, Kuala Nerus, here
yesterday.
He acknowledged that the leaders of Opposition parties
had to reach a consensus before Dr Mahathir could be
appointed adviser.
However, Anwar did hit out at Dr Mahathir for
labelling the country a police state under Prime
Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
He is now swallowing his own bitter pills, as he had
once run the country in such a manner, Anwar added.
