Warisan hopes to bring multicultural, issue-driven politics to West Malaysia, says Shafie

KOTA KINABALU, Nov 3 — Warisan president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal has said offering Malaysians another choice is important, in response to accusations that his party is trying to gain a foothold in an already crowded national political landscape.

“It is about giving them a choice. Must it be Umno, Bersatu, Pakatan Harapan , PKR or DAP only? Maybe it is time winds from the east reach here. Why not? The Malays won’t collapse without Umno. The Chinese won’t collapse without DAP. Islam in this country won’t collapse without PAS. That’s why we are providing the choice,” he said.

He said in developed nations, established parties do not use race or religion as a political tool but talk about livelihood, jobs, education, welfare, health and security while practising their own religion. He also reiterated that he was not gunning for the role of prime minister, but that he was merely offering an option.“I’m not obsessed. I do not have high ambitions to hold the posts. But if you ask if I am PM material, why not? I have relevant national experience having served the government in all kinds of capacity for 32 years.
