Anwar Ibrahim, who’s in line to become Malaysia’s next premier, blasted Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s treatment of the Rohingya and called for formal talks on China’s crackdown against its Muslim minority.
“I was appalled by the attitude of Suu Kyi these days,” Anwar said in an interview with Bloomberg Television’s Sophie Kamaruddin in Hong Kong. “Buddhists, Muslims, Christians all supported her. Why must she continue to be seen to be condoning crimes against the minority?”
