PRIME Minister Anwar Ibrahim has urged opposition MPs to resume discussions with Deputy Prime Minister Fadillah Yusof regarding allocation requests for their respective constituencies.

This follows the statement by opposition lawmakers yesterday who said that they would stop negotiations on allocations with Fadillah.

“Discuss with DPM Fadillah,” Anwar told reporters after officiating the National Family Month Celebration 2023 at Dataran Putrajaya today.

Asked about allegations that there were various conditions the opposition MPs had to comply with if they wanted to request for allocations, Anwar said: “None.”

Yesterday, Perikatan Nasional chief whip Takiyuddin Hassan said that he had met with Fadillah twice to discuss the allocations before announcing the decision to suspend negotiations on the matter. – Bernama, November 4, 2023.
