The PKR president says he will not endorse meetings held by factions, including the 'cartel'.

As infighting within PKR continues to rage, party president Anwar Ibrahim makes it clear that he will not call for meetings with different factions.

“You have to wait to elect a new president if you dare,” he said in his speech at the party's Perlis and Kedah divisions' joint convention in Kulim this afternoon.Those aligned to the president used this term to refer to PKR deputy president Azmin Ali's faction. However, it is believed this is the first time Anwar used this description in public.

“Anyone can meet me. On other days, I am at my office in Jalan Gasing . So it is not true to say cannot meet me. What more if you are a minister or deputy minister. Emphasising on the need for PKR to be strong, Anwar told his audience that people would evaluate the party based on the internal manoeuvrings which are presently occurring.The PKR president said history must be revisited because power and wealth are bewitching.

“What is our difference? Our people are the most anti-corruption, anti-extravagance and anti-bribes. But when we rule, idealism begins to wane,” he said.Anwar conceded that Pakatan Harapan has been unable to deliver on all of the promises in its election manifesto but stressed on the importance of commitment to achieve certain goals.

“This is why we need to be focussed, not hold discussions here and there. Holding talks with Umno one moment and the next moment, holding talks with PAS. What is this?” he chided.
