PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has lamented hate politics in the country which he said was "too strong".
However, Anwar said it would not stop the government from doing its job.
"I tell you, it is not easy. The hate politics is too strong in this country," he said in a speech at the Finance Ministry's monthly assembly here.
"I don't take a salary, I get insulted. When we are firm in our fight against corruption, I get insulted.
"I have a good relationship with Hamas, I get insulted, and on the BlackRock issue, I am accused of being an Israeli agent."
Anwar said all the facts were being completely ignored and that hatred was being sowed.
"But should it bother us? Not at all," he said.
