Bloomberg: Anwar Will Run for Malaysia Parliament Once Eligible

May 29 (Bloomberg) — Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim, freed from prison in 2004, said he’ll “immediately” contest a parliamentary seat once he confirms his eligibility, part of a plan to topple the government by mid-September.

“If we’re absolutely certain of my eligibility, we would opt to do it immediately,” he told Bloomberg Television in an interview today. Anwar said he doesn’t have confirmation from Malaysia’s Attorney General that he can hold public office, after serving time in jail on corruption charges he denies.

Anwar, 60, a former Malaysian deputy premier, is seeking to overthrow a coalition that’s ruled since independence from Britain in 1957. Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, weakened in March 8 elections, is introducing measures to slow inflation and reduce corruption to win back public support.

Anwar, who has calculated he was legally able to be a lawmaker in mid-April, said he may instruct his lawyers to seek an official response from the Attorney General unless he has a ruling by the end of this month.

Malaysian Attorney General Abdul Gani Patail declined to comment when reached on his mobile phone today.

Anwar today repeated claims that his alliance has lined up the necessary 30 defections from Abdullah’s coalition to take power. He also said the opposition coalition will discuss who might have the role of deputy prime minister in any potential government that he would lead.

“The issue now is to ensure a smooth transition of power, according to constitutional provisions,” Anwar said.

Anwar’s People’s Justice Party, the Democratic Action Party, and the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party won control of five of Malaysia’s 13 states in the March elections, and denied the coalition its usual two-thirds majority in Parliament.

    DSAI

    You will make it. Just ignore the distractors. The pro-BN media will go all out to distort the truth but not all the people can be cheated all the time. Their bluffs and propaganda before the recent general elections (March 8) did not convince the people. Amost 50 per cent of the people’s votes went to the Opposition. If not for the “rigging”, BN would have lost in the elections. Stay strong as the people are with you and PKR. Convince as many as possible to become members of PKR and very soon we shall see a change in the political landscape of this country. Ketuanan Rakyat is apt. Help the marginalised people of all races. This is Islamic and humanity. The rights of all Malaysians should not be ignored - bumis and non-bumis. If the 5 states under PKR can prove themselves with good governance, the pace is set for PKR to take over BN as the ultimate government. This will soon become a reality. Good luck.

    Don’t worry, Anwar will be the next PM Soon, why?
    Because of the story of Rahman.
    We know that, the name of our PM so far will follow the Rules of Rahman as below:
    Rahman
    Abdul Razak
    Hussein Oon
    Mahathir
    Abdullah
    N…..
    Who is the next one with “N”? Many people said is Najib, but the answer is— wrong. Because the real name of Najib is Mohamad Najib, so he is “M” not “N”.

    So who will be the one with “N”? The correct anser is Anwar, why? Pls read his name in english. IS actually pronounce “Nwar”.
