Anwar tells media not to 'ampu' the gov't


De facto PKR  leader Anwar Ibrahim wants the media to be the voice of the people, and be steadfast in its duties as the fourth estate to keep government leaders in check.
"Recently, the media supported Pakatan Harapan due to the euphoria of the coalition having won the elections on May 9.
"But after everything settles down, the media has the right to speak up and criticise all state and federal governments," Anwar said during a grand ceramah in Permatang Pauh, his first since his release from prison on May 15.
"The media brownnosed (ampu) the previous government by touting that we are the best in the world, the best in the economy.
"Agriculture? Best in the world. Manufacturing? Best in the world.
"Haprak (useless), liars. We must face reality, the media must be the voice of the people, they must be free to speak up against the government, and leaders must not react angrily, they must be prepared to accept what the media reports," he said to cheers from the 3,000-odd crowd.

Anwar said he himself has not been spared criticism, as he was taken to task for flying to Kelantan on a government's jet with his wife, Deputy Prime Minister Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, and their daughters.
He later explained that he was merely accompanying Azizah on the trip, as his whole family were invited to meet the Yang di-Pertuan Agong's mother, Tengku Anis Tengku Abdul Hamid, in Kota Bahru. -Mkini
