Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said that constant discussion and speculation on choosing sides is not only counter-productive but will only add on to the brewing cauldron of mistrust and suspicion. ― Picture by Sayuti ZainudinKUALA LUMPUR, June 6 ― Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today said that Malaysia will choose the side of peace and progress in international conflicts.
“Of late, Malaysia has been perceived as tilting to one side, in a so-called strategic pivot from the other side. This is not only an oversimplification but a gross misperception of our national interests and character. The truth is Malaysia was, is, and will be, on the side of Malaysia. “At the same time, Malaysia will continue to pursue productive and meaningful relations with our other partners, whether they be our longstanding strategic and comprehensive strategic partners, or friends in the global south. Malaysia has a proud history of being part of the Non-Aligned Movement during the cold war.
“I am speaking here of war crimes, flagrant atrocities committed in the killing fields under the pretext of self-defence, and settler colonialism which is nothing short of a systematic campaign of genocide to displace an entire population of indigenous people.
