King can consider forming minority govt if no MP commands majority support, says Ahmad Faizal


IPOH: The Yang di-Pertuan Agong can consider forming a minority government if no MP has the support of the majority of the Dewan Rakyat, says Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu.

The Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia deputy president explained that the statutory declarations (SDs) signed by 11 Umno MPs withdrawing support for the Perikatan Nasional Government and Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin had theoretically caused the Perikatan government to fall.
