Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim has described the government's move to select Permatang Pauh as the venue for the prime minister's 1Malaysia Aidilfitri open house celebration as a "tacit recognition of Anwarphobia".
Anwar, who is Permatang Pauh MP, said the choice of the venue also indicated BN's acknowledgment of the importance of the constituency in the coming general election.
