PKR will fulfill election promises if we win GE15, assures Anwar
PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says the existing government has failed to tackle the rising cost of living and goods.
He said there is optimism and reawakening among party members to take down corrupted leaders.
“With PKR's strength, I am very confident that we are able to take down the existing government. InsyaAllah, we hope to make history.
“It is true that in 2018, we achieved it by overthrowing the previous government but, sadly, we were not able to bring forward the reform agenda in that limited time,” he said during his speech at PKR’s 16th National Congress.
PH administration ended abruptly after several PKR MPs involved in the Sheraton Move jumped ship to Bersatu and supported Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin as the prime minister, causing PH to lose the majority.
Anwat said during PH era he met with the then prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Moahamad to discuss reforms but were not accomplished.
“If we succeed in the 15th General Election (GE15), we will fulfill the promises we made to the people,” he said.
Relating this to the current economic situation of the country, he said the present government is unable to tackle the rising cost of living and goods as they are focused on saving themselves politically.
“We think about the rakyat. That's the difference between them and us,” he added.
He said PKR is thinking of ways to enhance the quality of the education system, health facilities and better wages for the people while the government of 60 years is not able to bring changes to the country.
“This is a huge responsibility which requires sacrifice and intelligence,” he said.
