KUALA LUMPUR – PN chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has confirmed that Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin will continue to serve as the leader of the opposition.

Speaking to the media while campaigning for PN candidates in Pantai Dalit, Tuaran, in Sabah this afternoon, Muhyiddin said that no changes to the opposition leadership had been decided, local media reported.

His remarks came in response to circulating rumours suggesting that Bersatu vice-president Datuk Radzi Jidin was set to take over the opposition leader role.

“There’s nothing. No change (to the opposition leader). Everything remains as it is,” he said succinctly.

Speculation had emerged in recent days that Radzi might replace Hamzah, following reports linking Hamzah to attempts to destabilise Muhyiddin’s leadership.

However, a video shared by Bersatu leaders earlier showed 18 MPs meeting at Muhyiddin’s residence, with Hamzah later publicly reaffirming his support for the PN Chairman.

In a subsequent Facebook post, Muhyiddin emphasised that the discussion had been conducted transparently and responsibly. He also reiterated their shared commitment to fulfilling the people’s trust, ensuring discipline, and upholding the party’s integrity through principled and consistent actions. – November 21, 2025
