PAKATAN Harapan (PH) leaders plan to meet Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob next week to discuss the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) it signed with the federal government.

DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said this followed the issue of the RM100 million ‘gift’ to former prime minister Najib Razak, which was raised in the Dewan Rakyat during the winding up session of the Supply Bill 2022 at the policy level by Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz yesterday.

“(I) have already discussed with Anwar Ibrahim and Mohamad Sabu yesterday. The three of us agreed that the matter is not in line with the MOU we signed with the federal government.

“The three of us have decided to ask for a meeting with the prime minister to discuss the matter,” he told a press conference in Malacca today.

Najib, however, earlier today withdrew his request for a plot of land valued at RM100 million, saying he made the decision as people were not “comfortable” with it.

On the possibility that neither Perikatan Nasional (PN), Barisan Nasional (BN) nor PH get a majority in the Malacca elections and are not able to form a government, Lim said PH would discuss with its component parties before making any decision.

Tomorrow is polling day for the state elections, which was called following the dissolution of the Malacca state assembly on October 4 after four assemblymen withdrew support for the leadership of Chief Minister Datuk Seri Sulaiman Md Ali. – Bernama, November 19, 2021.
