“For the Palestinian refugees in Malaysia, we are trying to support them as much as we can, we also have a financial problems but we will continue to support them,” he he told media members at International Conference on Palestine Kuala Lumpur 2023 (ICPKL) here today.

Mohamad, who is fondly known as Mat Sabu, also highlighted that more European countries were voicing their support Palestine as opposed to the Arab nations.

The Kota Raja MP said the western countries were know more aware of the struggles of the Palestinian people, insisting that the fight must continue.

“Arab countries sometimes do not have political freedom and may not get accurate information.

“That's why we see in European parliaments, there are members of parliament who dare to criticise (the Israelis) because they see what Israel is doing to the Palestinian community,” he said.

He added that the world powers were not shifting from the west to now the east namely China.
