00:00Analysis suggests that Samsul Iskandar Akin was more careful in issuing the statement
00:06because it was possibly interpreted that he had received a blessing from Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim,
00:11an investigation into the decision of the Parliament of the Dato' at the PRU-15.
00:17Fellow Assembly Member Azmi Hassan said,
00:20as long as the right-wing politics is loyal to Anwar,
00:23the actions and statements of former President P.K.R.
00:26can have an impact on the inter-party relationship of the coalition government,
00:30even though its view is based on personal capacity.
00:34In a recent broadcast audio program,
00:37Samsul claimed that he was not challenging the decision of the PRU-15 in the Parliament of the Dato'
00:43which claimed that he was loyal to Zahid Hamidi with a thin majority, 348 votes.
00:49Mazlan Ali from the University of Technology Malaysia also argued that
00:53Samsul's statement has caused inconvenience to his colleagues in the coalition government,
00:59especially UMNO.
01:01It is Anwar's responsibility to advise his subordinates
01:05so that he no longer utters words that can undermine his position in Putrajaya.
