Incoming Melaka CM not leader of 'backdoor' state govt, says Merlimau rep

MELAKA: A Melaka assemblyman has hit out at a fellow lawmaker for branding the incoming Melaka chief minister as the leader of a "backdoor" state government.

Merlimau assemblyman Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh asked Rembia assemblyman Datuk Muhamad Jailani Khamis, who are both from Umno, not to forget the 2020 Melaka political impasse where the latter was among the lawmakers who caused the Pakatan Harapan-led state government to collapse.
