KUALA LUMPUR: Asian markets skidded in the morning session Thursday, with China’s markets down nearly 3.4% on fears of slowing global growth while the KLCI fell to a near three-month low as investors’ sentiment was rattled by political uncertainties.

Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi would hold an emergency meeting with Barisan Nasional component parties at 2.30pm after the Sarawak Progressive Party (SAPP) said it would table a motion of no confidence against the Prime Minister next Monday in Parliament.
