Anwar is the ticket to new govt, says Guan Eng
By CHAN LI LEEN
IPOH: PKR adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is the people's ticket to a new Federal Government, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said.
Lim, who is also Penang Chief Minister, said Anwar's return to Parliament after he wins the Permatang Pauh by-election would pave way to programmes for an improved new Government.
"We hope Anwar can win and win big so that he can bring to Parliament the hopes of the Pakatan Rakyat and all Malaysians for a fairer, more democratic and transparent Government.
"We are confident that with the cooperation among the partners of Pakatan Rakyat, there will be new politics," he said when opening the Ipoh Timur and Ipoh Barat DAP Parliamentary Liaison Committee annual general meetings here on Sunday night.
Lim said Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi would not succeed as an efficient prime minister as he was still not ready to create policies that benefited everyone. "But it doesn't matter because we have a prime minister-in-waiting," he said.
