Leaders of the opposition-led “Turun Anwar” rally last Saturday did not raise any “substantive” demands that can contribute to ongoing reform efforts, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim told Indonesian media Narasi.tv on the sidelines of his official visit to Jakarta today.
Anwar, however, told journalist and Narasi founder Najwa Shihab that the rally of some 25,000 people was the first in Malaysia’s history to be carried out peacefully with assistance from authorities.
