The post “I’ve stepped down, what about you?” – Anthony Loke Challenges BN MPs Who Keep Criticising PMX & Unity Govt appeared first on WORLD OF BUZZ.

DAP Secretary-General Anthony Loke Siew Fook has challenged Barisan Nasional (BN) MPs who continue to criticise Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to resign from their Cabinet positions if they disagree with the current administration.

Speaking at a ceramah in Melaka last night (10 November), Loke called on disgruntled ministers and political leaders to demonstrate collective responsibility by stepping down if they no longer support the current administration, as reported by Utusan Malaysia.




“I’ve already done so, what about you?” Loke calls out Cabinet hypocrisy

The bold challenge comes immediately after Loke himself officially resigned from his post as Minister of Transport, choosing to step aside in line with his principled stance following a High Court ruling regarding former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

Loke then questioned the integrity of coalition partners who openly attack government policies, question ministerial budget allocations, and criticise the Prime Minister day and night while simultaneously attending weekly Cabinet meetings.


“If you’re not satisfied, leave. If you don’t agree with the Prime Minister, resign. I have already done so. What about you, my friend?



“Every day you express disagreement, while your party attacks the Prime Minister day and night, claiming various things are wrong. Yet, you still remain in the government,” he added, asking what these leaders truly intend to achieve by sitting in Cabinet meetings chaired by Anwar every Wednesday and Friday.


Official resignation statement

Loke’s fiery rally speech followed an official Facebook statement he released on 10 November 2026, announcing his immediate departure from the Ministry of Transport (MOT).

In his official statement, Loke explained that his resignation was effective immediately following the Kuala Lumpur High Court’s decision allowing Najib to serve house arrest, staying true to a public stance he had previously declared.





“Following the Kuala Lumpur High Court’s decision today for Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to serve house arrest, and in line with the position I announced last Friday, my resignation as Minister of Transport takes effect immediately.

This decision holds firm to the principles and stance that I have previously explained.

I record my sincere appreciation to YAB Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim for the trust and mandate given to me to serve in his Cabinet since December 2022.


I also express my heartfelt thanks to the top management and all staff of the Ministry of Transport for their commitment and cooperation throughout my tenure leading MOT.

I will extend my full cooperation to ensure the transition of duties runs smoothly, and that all responsibilities and initiatives of the ministry continue to be executed for the benefit of the rakyat.”

He expressed his deep gratitude to Anwar Ibrahim for trusting him to serve in the Cabinet since December 2022, while thanking the management and staff at MOT for their dedication.

Loke assured the public that he will cooperate fully to ensure a smooth transition of duties so ongoing ministry initiatives for the rakyat remain unaffected.
