Turun Anwar Rally A Call For Unity To Save Malaysia From Impending Crisis Of Sorts

---

 
THE United Rights of Malaysian Party (Urimai) is calling on all Malaysians – Malays, Chinese, Indians and all others who believe in justice and democracy – to participate in the peaceful “Turun Anwar” rally which is a nationwide call for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to step down.
Editor’s Note: The PAS-backed rally will take place on July 26 (Saturday) at Dataran Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur.
Anwar who has yet to complete even one full term in office has betrayed the trust of Malaysians by failing to uphold democratic values.

The most alarming issue is his interference in the judiciary – a cornerstone of democracy. His refusal to extend the service of former chief justice Tun Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat despite her stellar record and the quiet removal of other senior judges raises serious concerns of executive overreach.
In stark contrast, the term of Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki, a figure mired in controversy has been extended three times under Anwar’s leadership.
An estimated 1,000 participants attended the Selangor state level Turun Anwar rally which took place at the rear parking lot of the Concorde Hotel in Section 9, Shah Alam on July 6, 2025Under Anwar’s administration, Malaysia has drifted further into a crisis of inequality. While the PM speaks grandly of foreign direct investments (FDI) and national progress, ordinary Malaysians are left to suffer:

The Sales and Services Tax (SST) tax hike has further squeezed the working and middle class.Consumer prices are soaring, placing essential goods out of reach for many.Youth unemployment remains high with no clear policy direction to create meaningful, sustainable jobs.Public healthcare and education systems are under-funded while lavish funds continue to flow into mega projects that do not benefit the rakyat.‘Progress has stifled’
Anwar has become a symbol of broken promises and elite capture. The rhetoric of reform has been replaced by authoritarian practices and protection for political allies, ie the use of state institutions like the MACC as weapons against opponents.
Malaysia’s foreign debt is now in the trillions of ringgit yet Anwar continues to promote the illusion of economic stability.
Promised billions in FDIs remain invisible with no factories, jobs or infrastructure to show for them. The people are right to ask: Where is the progress? Where is the prosperity?
Satees MuniandyThe so-called Madani Economy has failed to lift the rakyat’s quality of life. Instead, Anwar’s leadership has plunged the country deeper into political instability, economic stagnation and social discontent.
The Turun Anwar rally is more than just a protest. It is a collective cry from the people – a demand for accountability, justice and the restoration of democracy.
Malaysians from all walks of life, all races, and all religions must come together to reclaim the future of the nation.

Let this be a turning point in Malaysian history. Let us stand united against tyranny, corruption and incompetence.
Let July 26 be the day Malaysians rise – not for any political party – but for the nation. 
Former DAP Bagan Dalam state assemblyman, Satees Muniandy, is today the interim secretary of United Rights of Malaysian Party (Urimai).
