Bersih 2.0 says PM must test confidence in emergency Parliament sitting now


PETALING JAYA: Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin must call for an emergency Parliament sitting now to ensure that he enjoys the support of the majority of MPs, and not wait until September, says electoral watchdog Bersih 2.0.

A statement by its steering committee on Wednesday (Aug 4) said that a delay in testing Muhyiddin’s support through a vote of confidence in Parliament would only prolong the ongoing political instability, with parties horse trading for support through appointments and positions.
