ALOR GAJAH: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today questioned why some people continued to defend and honour leaders accused of plundering public funds, even as the government bore the cost of their past financial mismanagement.
He said corruption and abuse of power should not be excused because of a leader's political influence or race.
"You don't get angry with those who 'sakau'? You even kiss their hands and accept their donations.
"That makes me wonder what is happening to our country," he said at the Pesta Melaka, Rumah Kita programme at Taman Melaka Perdana here last night.
