Anwar denies any pact between him and Ahmad Zahid
There will be no cooperation between Pakatan Harapan and Umno, Anwar Ibrahim made it clear.
The Pakatan chairman said the heads of Pejuang, Bersatu and PAS, namely Mahathir Mohammad, Muhyiddin Yassin and Abdul Hadi Awang, had been making baseless accusations on his relationship with Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
“They say I am having discussions with Ahmad Zahid. They said there is a recording of a phone conversation [between us].
“When have I ever talked to him? I am only meeting and talking with DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke and Amanah president Mohamad Sabu to further strengthen our coalition,” he said in his speech at a Pakatan Harapan high tea at a restaurant in Taman Molek, Johor.
On Monday, Mahathir claimed that Anwar and Ahmad Zahid had already held talks about cooperating.
In a separate matter, Anwar said those who jumped ship previously should not be given second chances.
“Do not give a single vote to traitors. We should not trust any of them,” he said.
