KUALA LUMPUR: Pakatan Harapan leaders have maintained silence over the battle of words between Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Johari Abdul Ghani and former premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad over Bank Negara Malaysia's (BNM) foreign reserve losses between 2013 and 2016.

On Tuesday (Dec 26), Johari had penned an open letter to Dr Mahathir, saying that the US$39.6bil (RM160bil) allegedly lost from BNM's international reserves was due to the outflow of foreign funds, not losses stemming from foreign exchange (forex) trading.
