The People's Alliance for Peace Malaysia or commonly known as Peace Malaysia has been criticised by certain quarters to be aligned to pro-establishment groups and political parties.

Today, Peace Malaysia adviser and social activist Lee Lam Thye came out to set the record straight about the month-old alliance.

He explained that Peace Malaysia is a coalition of NGOs, comprising voluntary, youth, uniformed bodies, political parties, religious, welfare, students and professionals with the common goal of pursuing a comprehensive, permanent and just world peace.

Peace Malaysia is no proxy to any political party but a spontaneous and genuine desire by Malaysians to oppose war, he stressed.
