Johor Mb Has Succeeded Where You Failed Liew Tells Muhyiddin
Johor DAP chief Liew Chin Tong says Muhyiddin Yassin refuses to treat allies and opposition with respect.PETALING JAYA: DAP’s Liew Chin Tong has praised Johor Menteri Besar Hasni Mohammad for his bipartisan approach in governing the state while calling out Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin for failing to do the same at the federal level.
The Johor DAP chairman said Hasni and Muhyiddin were in similar predicaments, holding slim majorities in the state assembly and Dewan Rakyat, respectively, but chose different approaches to pass their budgets.
“Thus far, Muhyiddin has been trying to dominate and subjugate, alienating the opposition and his own allies while losing focus on the need to rally the nation to face the greatest political, economic and health crises that the country has ever seen.
“Hasni defined the opposition as a ‘strategic partner’ in governing, which is a departure from Umno’s old idea of its dominance and attempts to eliminate the opposition.
“While one can dismiss Hasni’s points as mere rhetoric, at least he has the right rhetoric suitable for our time while Muhyiddin refuses to treat allies and opposition with respect,” Liew said in a statement today.
He said Putrajaya needed to be prepared to engage constructively with the opposition and to treat them with respect, adding that the government of today could be on the other side of the aisle the next day.
The former deputy defence minister added that the opposition will need to move beyond being a “protest movement” but should instead push the current administration for good long-term policies and to behave in a bipartisan manner.
“Rumour has it that Muhyiddin will call a general election before Ramadan 2021. The current approach by the Muhyiddin government is to dominate over allies and opposition parties.
“Instead of trying to call a snap poll, Muhyiddin should start governing with bipartisanship for the sake of the nation, which is still stuck in multiple crises,” Liew said. - FMT
