PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's use of the term "melalak" (howling) must be taken in context and not manipulated for narrow political purposes, said Angkatan Muda Keadilan. The PKR youth wing's chief Muhammad Kamil Abdul Munim said AMK took a serious view of attempts to exaggerate Anwar's use of the term in a social media post concerning an alleged desecration of the Quran. "The term must be understood in its proper context and not taken in isolation to create a misleading perception. He urged all parties to stop manipulating the issue for political gain and allow the authorities to complete investigations without pressure or interference. "As a multiracial nation, stability and national harmony must not be sacrificed for cheap rhetoric that inflames religious or racial sentiments.
