Kenyataan Media Anwar Ibrahim Berhubung Isu YB Elizabeth Wong

Bangunan Parlimen, 17 Februari 2009

Saya merujuk kepada kenyataan Saudari Elizabeth Wong, di mana beliau telah menawarkan diri untuk meletakkan jawatan sebagai Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri kawasan Bukit Lanjan serta Ahli Majlis Mesyuarat Kerajaan Negeri Selangor.

Saya mengecam sekeras-kerasnya taktik keji yang digunakan ke atas beliau. Kita tertanya-tanya sekeji mana dalang ini sanggup menggunakan taktik tersebut.

Saya dan Azizah telahpun berbincang secara panjang lebar dengan Saudari Elizabeth Wong. Kami memahami asas kepada keputusan yang diambil beliau.

—PRESS STATEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE—
Parliament House, 17th February 2009

The last few days must have been trying and stressful for her and her family. We hope the mass media will give her the breathing space she deserves.

I refer to the statement released by our Elizabeth Wong today wherein she has offered her resignation as State Executive Councillor and Bukit Lanjan Assemblywoman.

I can only use the strongest possible terms to condemn the smear tactics used against her. One can only wonder to what depths the people behind this will stoop to achieve their aims.

Elizabeth Wong has spoken at length to Azizah and me. We have discussed the issues and we understand her reasons and the decision she has taken.

ANWAR IBRAHIM
KeADILan De Facto Leader
