PETALING JAYA, Oct 2 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi’s greatest failure in his tenure is his inability to be Prime Minister for all Malaysians, according to DAP parliamentary leader Lim Kit Siang.
In a statement today, he claimed that the premier had failed to honour the pledge he had made to be Prime Minister for all Malaysians because "Abdullah had failed to deliver a single one of the many grand promises for which he was given the unprecedented victory of over 91 per cent of parliamentary seats in the 2004 general election."
"This is why his Hari Raya message that 'this country belongs to all of us, everyone of us' and that 'no citizen is recognised as being of a higher status than another in this motherland' felt like a damp squib," the Ipoh Timur MP said.
He also slammed Abdullah's statement that "it was saddening when racial issues which can tear apart the fabric of unity that has been woven together all this while were raised of late." ... MORE
