Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has yet to decide whether to accept Anthony Loke’s resignation as transport minister, saying the matter requires further discussion with the DAP secretary-general.

Anwar said Loke had submitted his resignation letter but maintained that he had not agreed to the decision, despite the minister’s announcement that he had stepped down.

“Anthony wrote to me immediately, but as prime minister, I have yet to accept his resignation letter.

“He can take leave, but if he wants to resign, we need to discuss it again,” he said during the Grand Finale Jelajah Harapan – Melaka Rumah Kita in Hang Tuah Jaya last night.
