'Dubai Move' bound to fail as PM has support of 150 MPs, says Zahid


KOTA TINGGI: The “Dubai Move” was not successful because the Prime Minister has the support of 150 out of 222 MPs at the moment, says Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

The Deputy Prime Minister said that with anti-party hopping laws in place, such a move could not become a reality despite "some claiming to have obtained sufficient numbers of statutory declarations (SD) to overthrow the government.”
