PKR leaders, MPs & ADUNs meet in Shah Alam - Malaysiakini.tv

Parti Keadilan Rakyat de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim said the 'Ketuanan Melayu' card increasing played up by Umno is to divert attention from the party's internal problems following its unprecedented setback in last month's general election.

The former Umno deputy president said this today at a hotel in Shah Alam when he was asked to comment on Utusan Malaysia's 'Ketuanan Melayu tercabar' front-page headlines in the Umno-owned newspaper.

On his plans to run for a parliamentary seat, Anwar reiterated that it was not important now as he wants to concentrate on strengthening the Pakatan coalition.

He said that for the time being he wants to help Pakatan to focus on good governance and improve the working relationship between the various parties within the opposition alliance.

"My personal career is not a priority at the moment as I've still got time," he added.
