Not Sitting With DAP Was Metaphor, Says Onn Hafiz

Johor Menteri Besar Onn Hafiz Ghazi clarified that his remark about not sitting with DAP was a metaphor. He explained the statement signified his unwillingness to be part of the same state government administration. Onn Hafiz, who also chairs Johor's Barisan Nasional (BN), emphasized that he has no problem cooperating with DAP on state and federal government capacities for the benefit of the people.

His clarification aimed to address any misinterpretations of his earlier statement. The Menteri Besar stressed that his intention was not to express personal animosity but to delineate political positioning within the state's governance structure. The cooperation he envisions is focused on serving the public interest, transcending party lines.

The remarks suggest a nuanced approach to political alliances, prioritizing pragmatic collaboration for public welfare over rigid party affiliations. Onn Hafiz's statement seeks to foster a working relationship that benefits the populace, despite potential political differences.
