GOMBAK - Malaysia's Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali has said that a tweet he sent out recently was directed at himself, and not aimed at MP Nurul Izzah Anwar as widely held by the public.
Ms Nurul Izzah, had told The Straits Times in an interview that while she had learnt much in the past year,"my heart's been broken as well, somewhat". Mr Azmin sent out a tweet on March 24 - the day the interview was published in The Sunday Times - that was seen as attacking Ms Nurul Izzah. Two days after the tweet, Ms Izzah on March 26 defended her remarks against Tun Mahathir, saying it is important to make her stance clear."I'm always an optimist. But sometimes, I think we have to make our stance very clear. I did not mean any harm certainly. Insyallah , I will continue to speak in favour of what is right and what is important," she told reporters in the lobby of the Malaysian parliament.
