To me, it's a very ugly attitude to have," the Lembah Pantai MP told a press conference at his ministry in Putrajaya this evening.Meanwhile, in a separate story, a PKR veteran has opined that Rafizi Ramli should not only be given space to voice criticism of the government, but also considered to lead the party as its next president.According to Hassan Karim, Rafizi's criticisms are not slanderous but are grounded in the former economy minister's expertise and experience, particularly in policy and governance matters.___________________📌 Share this news!
