She tells @alboMP to take a trip back to his past (when he supported Palestine). Pick up your guts, call for a ceasefire!

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim @anwaribrahim delivered his maiden speech tonight at the 78th Session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
Dressed in light blue Malay traditional wear and songkok, coincidentally the president of the session is also the permanent representative of Malaysia to the UN, Ahmad Faisal Muhammad presided today.
Anwar took about 16 minutes in his speech at New York.
Here are among the highlights:
📕Stronger nations are increasingly casting the UN aside for smaller platforms, while they pay lip services to the imperative of multilateralism, the emergence of mini-lateralism, effectively lead to fragmented configurations of power
📕 Major powers rivalry will lead to a world where the masses are unrepresented, where the few rule over the many and the many resent the few
📕 Condemn unequivocally the Russian invasion of Ukraine - impact of the war in Ukraine has caused food prices to skyrocket, leading to shortages and hunger
📕 Calls on Myanmar to immediately implement ASEAN FIve Point Consensus
📕 Climate change - Malaysia is seeing an increase of the adverse impacts of climate change, urging developed countries to fulfil their commitment of mobilizing $100 billion a year to support climate projects and programs in developing countries
📕 Islamophobia - Malaysia is concerned over the emergence of "new form of racism" in the form of xenophobia, negative profiling and stereotyping of Muslims
