PETALING JAYA: Embattled Ketereh MP Tan Sri Annuar Musa (pic) believes his speaking out against topmost Umno leadership will cost him dearly, but maintains that he will “not stay quiet forever”.
“Politics is the art of a thousand and one possibilities, what is important is that our conscience is clear.
“But, in our struggle, we have options,” said Annuar.
He also took a dig at party president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi by saying that they had differences of opinions, as the latter had gone against the official decisions of the party.
“I spoke up when I found out that the topmost party leadership had signed a letter agreeing to Pakatan Harapan and PKR chief Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim as the next prime minister after bringing down then prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
“The ones who told the truth are the ones dropped; the ones who didn’t get away.
“I did not support Anwar as the PM not because I had personal enmity but because it was decided by the party ‘No Anwar, No DAP’,” said Annuar.
Stressing that it was not his style to beg for a seat from Umno, Annuar said he had “enslaved” himself to Umno and Barisan since his youth.
“I am very pro-Muafakat Nasional and I know lots of stories.
“I am keeping quiet as I do not want to create fights.
“We would not have been the government if not for PAS and Bersatu. We even won the Melaka and Johor state elections.
“We won all that but we forget we only had a small share of MP seats.
“I have kept quiet all this while but it does not mean I will remain quiet forever,” said Annuar.
