PETALING JAYA: Cooperation between different political parties during general elections is something that should not be discounted despite party grassroots' remaining against the idea, says Datuk Seri Anwar IbrahimThe PKR president said that discussions were a necessity among Pakatan Harapan coalition partners, but stressed that achieving a consensus on the topic wasn't a form of compulsion."For example, when Parti Pejuang Tanah Air said they will support any winning party.
Commenting further on the matter, Anwar does not discount the possibilities of multi-cornered fights when the 15th general election comes. "Because our experience as a party, together with DAP and Amanah as its loyal partner, is seen to be strong," added Anwar. "As an example, I'm the Opposition leader and the Prime Minister called for a discussion. I must be ready to discuss issues touching on the people's interest," he said.Anwar then gave another scenario, saying that he was unsure about the ruling coalition's strength at present, and conceded that Barisan currently has the upper hand."In Johor, people said we were defeated. But, they forgot that if we ensure one-on-one fights, the situation will be different.
