Anwar shouldn't entertain allegedly corrupt UMNO's request to dissolve Parliament
FMT reported tonight that Amanah deputy president Datuk Seri Dr Mujahid Yusof Rawa said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim should not entertain UMNO’s call to dissolve Parliament for an early general election.
Referring to a Malay daily's news report, Mujahid reportedly said that as the current government’s term expires only towards the end of next year, priority must be given towards dealing with policies, especially those related to the economy and the people’s wellbeing.
“I do not think the current government is prepared to sacrifice these initiatives because it is being pressured by UMNO to call for an election,” he was quoted by Sinar Harian as saying.
Yesterday, UMNO president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, in a swipe at Pakatan Harapan, dared the party’s critics to dissolve Parliament as soon as possible. However, at a press conference after the UMNO general assembly, Zahid reiterated UMNO’s pledge to stick with the current government until its term ends.
The unity coalition government’s term expires in December 2027. Elections must be held by February 2028, unless Parliament is dissolved earlier.
Mujahid said the unity government was established in 2022 with conditions attached. He also said that parties wishing to exit the current administration are welcome to do so.
“I do not think Anwar intends to kick any party out, but he will not stop them from leaving if they decide to do so,” he said.
