PKR mulls suing those linking party to Liberal International

PKR will consider taking legal action against malicious parties linking it to Liberal International.

PKR information chief Fahmi Fadzil reiterated that PKR had never been a member of Liberal International and that the London-based association had removed PKR’s name and logo from its website.

“Yesterday I announced that PKR was not a member of Liberal International and I have contacted them.

“So I ask our friends, especially lawyers, to take into consideration the slander and malicious lies made by unscrupulous parties who are trying to link PKR with Liberal International with ill intentions, and we will consider if there is a need to take legal action,” he told reporters after officiating the OKU Celik Digital Empowerment Programme today.

The latest checks of the organisation’s website indicate that PKR’s name and logo, which were previously shown together with other parties and organisations from Asian countries, are no longer displayed.

Fahmi said that based on feedback from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), there are over 200-Liberal International related content used to attack PKR and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.

“So there is coordinated behaviour and this is a political attack, and it’s important that I explain that factually, PKR is not a member of Liberal International. So stop all the slander and lies,” the communications and digital minister added.

On a separate development, Fahmi said the government opined that mobile service providers should not impose additional charges to customers for 5G services.

“The government’s stand is to not impose additional charges. If needed, I will issue instructions (to mobile network providers),” he added.
