‘Resigning would be irresponsible’


PETALING JAYA: Resigning as Prime Minister will be irresponsible at a time when there is no other MP with a majority because there will be no one to manage the pandemic when there is no functioning Cabinet, says Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

He said he is prepared to hold a special Parliament sitting before the new session on Sept 6 if there is bipartisan support for his government, and will extend formal invitations to all political parties to discuss the offers on the table for this bipartisan backing.
