PETALING JAYA: The withdrawal of support by Umno MPs for the present Perikatan Nasional government must be backed by statutory declarations (SDs) to the King, say constitutional experts.
Constitutional expert Assoc Prof Datuk Dr Shamrahayu Abdul Aziz explained that in normal times, an MP will be qualified to be prime minister when he professes the confidence of the majority of the house.
