KOTA BHARU: Umno leaders said to have signed a statutory declaration (SD) in support of Anwar Ibrahim are advised to lodge a police report and file a complaint with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to deny it.
Barisan Nasional (BN) secretary-general Annuar Musa however said if it’s true, then the leaders must be honest with the people to avoid them giving the party a bad image.
He said as far as he knew, the signing of the SD was not a decision made by the party, either by Muafakat Nasional (MN) or Perikatan Nasional (PN), and there was no discussion on it.
“I hope it is not true. Only those whose names have been mentioned know what happened and they should be honest,” he told reporters after a meeting with bloggers in Kampung Tapang here today.
Annuar, who is also Ketereh MP, was commenting on claims that there were Umno MPs who had stated their support for the PKR president to form a new government.
He also reiterated Umno’s stand on the “no Anwar, no DAP” policy.
As such, Annuar advised party members to place the interests of the party above their own personal interests.
