KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is an opportunist who was the mastermind in organising the illegal rally on Saturday, said Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
The Prime Minister described the illegal rally organised by the outlawed group, Bersih 2.0, as a desperate plan by the opposition leader to manipulate the people to gain their support.
Najib, who is also the Umno president, said Anwar’s position was affected by the growing support of the people for the government following the various economic development policies that had been implemented.
Addressing 6,000 people who attended a briefing session at the Putra World Trade Centre, here yesterday, he said the member of parliament for Permatang Pauh was prepared to sacrifice his principles and put aside religion and race as long as he achieved his dream of becoming prime minister.
“He knows that if he does not do anything, we (the Barisan Nasional) will win in the 13th general election.
“This is the last chance for him. When people know that this is their last chance, they will do everything, good or bad,” he said.
Najib, who is also the BN chairman, said Anwar deliberately wanted to bring down the country’s image and show to the world that Malaysia was not democratic and instead tried to portray himself as a good person.
“This negative attitude has never changed from before until now,” he said. — Bernama
