PETALING JAYA: The Member of Parliament chosen to be the next prime minister has to immediately submit a motion of confidence in the Dewan Rakyat to prove he has the confidence of the majority, the King has decreed.

Whoever picked to lead the Federal Government has to be chosen based on the Federal Constitution, and the people should not be burdened with political turmoil while struggling with health and economic issues due to the Covid-19 pandemic, he added.
