#KiniNews: Anwar highlights cabinet consensus; Cops probing Hadi's US conspiracy remarks

KiniNews is now also available on Spotify and Apple podcasts. [KiniNews] Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is happy with how his cabinet is performing and dismissed any talk about there being a rift in Putrajaya. This is despite allegations of tensions between him and Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, as well as the Anwar-led Finance Ministry releasing unflattering data about how Zahid has managed the Rural and Regional Development Ministry. "We don't deny that our performance is commendable, because we have clear policies, stable politics, (and) cooperation in the cabinet, although sometimes on social media it appears differently," he said. Meanwhile, in a separate story, police have opened an investigation after PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang claimed that in 2014, the US offered to help the party topple the then-BN government. Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director M Kumar said police are investigating the case under Section 505(b) of the Penal Code for statements that cause public alarm, as well as Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act for misuse of network facilities. ___________________ Support independent media, subscribe to Malaysiakini.com - https://membership.malaysiakini.com/m...
