MH370 PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim has hit back at Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak for "manipulating” a comment made to Chinese daily Southern Weekly.
At a Finance Ministry meeting yesterday, Najib had attacked Anwar (right) for reportedly saying that he could have solved the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 mystery “in one second if he was prime minister”.
Today, Anwar said that the quote attributed to him had been wrongly translated.
He claimed to have said that he would have taken "one second to take immediate action and ensure flow of information".
"I am disgusted with Najib for manipulating my statement. They created a fake quote attributed to me and attacked it," Anwar told a press conference at PKR headquarters today.
Anwar also criticised Najib for remaining silent on the MH370 crisis and refusing to take questions from the media.
“He chooses not to answer questions but he can manipulate my statement,” he said.
Anwar also questioned the government’s refusal to release the cargo manifest from MH370.
“Why is a cargo manifest a national secret?” he asked.
Anwar said that the claim that four tonnes of mangosteen was the in flight cargo also did not add up as this is not the season for mangosteens.
“This is not even the season for mangosteens. Not only in Malaysia, but also Thailand, across this region it is not the season for mangosteens,” he said.
