Opposition leader Anwar thanks outgoing PM, urges nation to remain calm during transition

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 16 — Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim lauded Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin for the latter’s decision today to resign as the prime minister.“I urge all parties to remain calm and pray that Malaysia recovers strongly in facing the health and economic crises at the moment,” Anwar said in a statement.

“The National Immunisation Programme must be accelerated to ensure herd immunity is achieved by inoculation and not infection, a Covid-19 Reset Plan launched to shift from containment of Covid-19 to mitigation by living with Covid-19 and an Economic Normalisation Plan implemented to put Malaysia back on recovery track with emphasis on jobs, reopening the economy and regular financial aid to businesses and unemployed,” Lim said in a statement.

The resignation came after he lost his parliamentary majority when nearly a dozen Umno MPs openly rejected him.
