Analysts: It has no implication on PM’s leadership


PETALING JAYA: The government’s defeat in a motion in Parliament does not have any implication on Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob’s leadership as it is common knowledge that the government only has a slim majority, say political analysts.

Azmi Hassan, a senior fellow at Nusantara Academy for Strategic Research (NASR), said the failed Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma) motion may, however, have implications on the position of Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin.
