PETALING JAYA: Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has slammed Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's readiness to negotiate with China on PETRONAS' exploration in South China Sea, saying it undermines the country's territorial sovereignty.
Anwar in a speech in Parliament, while briefing on his China trip, had said while PETRONAS would continue its activities, Malaysia was open to negotiation on Beijing's concerns. The Perikatan Nasional chairman said it was a careless statement from a Prime Minister and while China was a global power, there should be no compromise on Malaysia's sovereignty.
"Anwar's statement sounded weak, irresponsible and was tantamount to surrendering Malaysia's dignity and sovereignty to a foreign power.
