UMNO vice president Datuk Johari Abdul Ghani said Malaysians should give Prime Minister (PM) Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim 10 years to fix the country and he promised they would be proud of the nation afterwards.

He said the 10 Madani Economy initiatives presented by the PM will be successful.

“When I looked at the economic direction presented by our PM, I saw that if Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Harapan (PH) can stay friendly for the next 10 years, I believe 10 economic initiatives will definitely be achieved,” said the Titiwangsa MP.

Last Thursday, the government aimed for Malaysia to be among the world’s 30 largest economies in the medium term. The Finance Minister labelled his proposals as the “Madani Economy,” which aligns with the broader vision of “Madani Malaysia”.

According to Johari, a country will achieve success through good direction and planning and it will be achieved if there is political stability in the country.

Since Anwar took over as PM, his government has faced some tremors of instability with rumours that 10 UMNO MPs were ready to cross to the opposition.

However, the plan failed to materialise, perhaps due to the possible legal consequences of the anti-hopping law.

Since then, the country has seen some stability. However, with state polls looming, there are concerns that a defeat of the PH-BN alliance could potentially destabilise the federal government.

At least this is what the Perikatan Nasional (PN) opposition is telling the public.

Despite that, Johari made a pointed remark directed at PAS saying, “There is a state in the northern part of the country where its residents have had to seek employment opportunities abroad.

“They have been given the opportunity to govern a state for over 30 years, but what happened to that state?”

He added that PAS complained that they have been oppressed by the central government but then Selangor was also ‘suppressed’ by the government when PH won in the state.

“They say their government is different from the central government. They are oppressed by the center.

“I asked them, how many terms has Selangor been run by PH and yet Selangor has become the strongest economy in the country?” Harapan  Daily quoted him as saying. 

Zahid backs Anwar for 2nd term as PM

Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has expressed his support for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to continue leading the country beyond the 16th General Election (GE16).

The deputy prime minister, when asked about former Malaysian ambassador to the United States Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz’s backing for Anwar’s next term, said it was also the desire of those in the unity government for the PKR president to remain in power.

“That is his (Nazri’s) aspiration and also our hope in the Madani government,” he briefly said when asked by reporters after launching Felcra Bhd’s closed-house system broiler farming project in Tanjung Seratus today.

Also present were Pahang Menteri Besar and Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail, and Felcra chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Jazlan Yaakub.

Earlier, Zahid was asked to comment on Nazri’s recent interview, where he expressed his support for Anwar, the Tambun Member of Parliament, to be reappointed as Prime Minister for a second term.
