BUKIT Gantang MP Syed Abu Hussin Hafiz Syed Abdul Fasal today repeated his claim that at least eight opposition lawmakers would declare support for Prime Minister DaAnwar Ibrahim’s government.

The Bersatu MP said the lawmakers would declare their support when parliament reconvenes late February.

“When parliament reconvenes in February, the activity (declaring support) will start. They will wait and monitor the progress throughout the next two months,” he told reporters at the “Lowest Priced Sale, Service for the People” programme at the People’s Housing Project in Kerinchi, Kuala Lumpur, today.

In December, Syed Abu Hussin said seven or eight MPs from Perikatan Nasional would declare their support for Anwar.

Earlier, Syed Abu Hussin became the fifth opposition leader to declare support for Anwar after Zahari Kechik (Jeli), Mohd Azizi Abu Naim (Gua Musang), Iskandar Dzulkarnain Abdul Khalid (Kuala Kangsar) and Suhaili Abdul Rahman (Labuan). – Bernama, January 6, 2024.
