KUALA LUMPUR – Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim says that he believes Sembrong Member of Parliament will change his mind about refusing to work with the coalition.
Earlier, former Senior Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein said he would rather be sacked than having to work with PH.
However, Anwar said that Hishammuddin had rejected PH or a DAP government, but at the moment it was unity government.
“Yea, he rejected PH, DAP, but this is essentially a coalition or a unity government.
“There is no DAP government. I believe he will revise his view,” he said in a press conference at a hotel, here, today.
In a Facebook post today, Hishamuddin said he was against any cooperation with PH to form the next government.
Also present at the press conference were DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke, Amanah deputy president Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub, Muda president Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman and United Progressive Kinabalu Organisation (Upko) president Datuk Seri Dr Wilfred Madius Tangau.
