PETALING JAYA: Due to Malaysia's support towards Palestine in its ongoing conflict with Israel, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has revealed that he had received many attacks and criticism from the international community.
However, Anwar said he would not be cowed by it and that Malaysia would never waver from its support for Palestinians.
"I was criticised and some even attacked me from Europe, the United States and certainly Israel. We are aware of this.
"But as long as the people give me the mandate, I will not be threatened and we will continue speaking out," said Anwar during his speech at the Axiata Arena Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Tuesday (Oct 24) night.
"Don't even think of threatening us. Malaysia is a fiercely independent country. We decide what is right. We understand the meaning of freedom and we are with the Palestinians in their struggle," he said.
Anwar also said he received many threats over his stance in support of Palestine.
"But I'll tell you – you picked the wrong person to threaten!" he said.
