Malaysia PM Anwar yet to Accept Loke’s Resignation as Transport Minister
Anwar said he has not received Anthony Loke’s formal resignation letter and would discuss any departure further, while praising the minister’s record.
- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said he has not received Transport Minister Anthony Loke's formal resignation letter, despite Loke's Tuesday announcement that he stepped down following a High Court order allowing Najib Razak to serve his SRC International prison sentence under house arrest.
- Loke's decision was made on principle, though the DAP secretary-general maintains that his party continues to support Anwar's unity government despite the resignation announcement.
- Speaking at a Pakatan Harapan ceramah on Wednesday, Anwar praised Loke's record as a minister, describing him as 'trustworthy and clean' while noting his efforts to improve taxi services and public travel.
- The Prime Minister expressed openness to allowing Loke a short break but emphasized that any formal resignation would require further discussion with the DAP secretary-general.
- Anwar urged Malaysians to elect leaders free from corruption regardless of race, acknowledging that many people—including Malays, Chinese, and Indians—continue to face unresolved problems.
