Communications and Multimedia Minister Saifuddin Abdullah said he was not the minister responsible for trying to ratify the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (Icerd).
He said ratifying Icerd was contained in the Pakatan Harapan manifesto and was also mentioned by the then prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad at the United Nations (UN) general assembly in 2018, but he was not the minister responsible for it.
He was commenting on the claim by DAP organising secretary Anthony Loke who said the idea to ratify Icerd and the Rome Statute was Saifuddin’s idea and not that of the DAP.
The then Harapan government backtracked from both after a backlash from conservatives.
