Nurul Izzah Admits Hajj Trip With Hubby Is Self Funded After Backstabbing By Own Pkr Member

---

 
NEWLY-ELECTED PKR deputy president Nurul Izzah Anwar has cleared the air that her hajj trip to Makkah with her husband was “entirely self-funded” after an allegedly supporter of the pro-Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli’s faction accused her of splashing “over RM200,000 per person” for her hajj expenses.
This came about after numerous slanderous social media posts and messages were hurled at the former Permatang Pauh MP who had recently engaged in a bitter contest for the deputy president post in the PKR top central leadership poll amid cries of nepotism and favouritism.
Aside from perhaps the privileged Mujamalah visa – an invitational or special visa issued by the Saudi Arabian government outside of the official quota – the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim reasoned that logistical arrangements were managed by licensed travel agency, Mimm Travel.
“We travelled on commercial flights and used our own savings (to pay for accommodation and transportation),” Nurul Izzah penned on her Facebook page yesterday (June 8) evening.

“No private jet as falsely claimed. The journey was undertaken just like millions of other Hajj pilgrims.”
Added the 44-year-old Nurul Izzah who married her ex-colleague Yin Shao Loong (now a Khazanah Research Institute senior research associate) on Aug 5, 2022 after her marriage with first husband Raja Ahmad Shahrir ended in divorce on Jan 16, 2015:
“While we may differ in opinions and compete in the political arena of this world, let us not allow worship to be used as material for slander and defamation.
“Let us pray for one another; may Allah SWT grant sustenance and opportunities to more Muslims to become His guests – in a state that is made easy with accepted deeds and kept far from human slander.:
Earlier, pro-HIRUK (Rafizi’s PKR poll campaign tagline) Malaysian Affairs 007 (@msianaffairs) had demanded to know what Nurul Izzah’s income source was after having claimed that the cost of her hajj expenses with her husband could have exceeded RM400,000.

“Everyone knows she stayed at Dar Al Tawhid Intercontinental, the most luxurious hotel in Mecca,” claimed the self-proclaimed anti-nepotism advocate.
Despite being criticised for poking his nose on Nurul Izzah’s private matters at a time when the couple needed the peace of mind to perform their pilgrimage solemnly and wholesomely, Malaysian Affairs 007 whose social media post has garnered 1M views at the time of writing seemed unremorseful in wanting to pin down the PKR president’s daughter despite her clarification.

“Things can be done for damage control. You can change hotels in the middle of the trip. You don’t need a miracle to do that ,” added the keyboard warrior. –  Focus Malaysia
