KUALA LUMPUR -- Thirty members of the
National Security Federation and the Malaysian Ex-Servicemen's
Association held a demonstration on Saturday protesting Anwar Ibrahim's
statement supporting Israel and demanding that he made a public apology.
The demonstration, which lasted one hour
from 3pm, was held in front of the Sogo shopping complex, Jalan Tuanku
Abdul Rahman, with the demonstrators putting up banners calling on Anwar
to make a public apology for making the statement supporting Israel.
They also provided another banner for the people in the country to put their signature for the call on Anwar to apologise.
The demonstration organiser, Arman Azhar
Abu Hanifah, who spoke to reporters after the gathering, said the
peaceful demonstration was an initiative to gather signatures from the
public who did not support Anwar's statement on Israel.
He said the banner containing the
signatures would be handed over to PAS on Friday if the party did not
show their stand on their coalition partner, PKR.
Anwar, who is also the Member of
Parliament for Permatang Pauh, received various criticisms for his
statement supporting Israel's security as reported by the Wall Street
Journal (WSJ) previously.
