VIVAnews - Former Malaysian Prime Minister denies allegations that his current visit to Indonesia will be an effort to gain support following the coming elections in Malaysia by 2013.
"I am here at the invitation of ITB (Bandung Institute of Technology) and CIDES. I've no plans at all to garner support," said Anwar today, Jan 30.
Anwar believes the Malaysian people will be in support of him taking into account a free verdict of sexual abuse charges on 9 January 2012. Anwar and his supporters said the case was a result of a conspiracy set up by UMNO regime.
Given various serious allegations, the UMNO regime and the Barisan Nasional coalition have attempted to grind down the opposing party that Anwar helms.
"I'm convinced that should the coming electoral process be held freely and fairly, we can win the elections," he said.
Anwar mentions his future plans on the future relationship between Indonesia and Malaysia. "The fundamental issues are concerned with such issues as border, migrant workers or culture. We're from the same roots. We'll engage in better partnerships with other neighboring countries," he said.
