Support from Bersatu MPs dismisses rumours of change in government, say analysts


KUALA LUMPUR: The increasing number of opposition Members of Parliament (MPs) declaring their support for Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim puts to rest rumours that the Unity Government formed after the 15th General Election in November last year would soon end, say analysts.

With the recent backing from four Bersatu MPs, the government bloc now holds 151 out of 222 parliamentary seats, giving them a two-thirds majority.
