PH Sabah rejects proposal to dissolve Parliament

Kuala Lumpur: Pakatan Harapan (PH) Sabah has rejected Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s proposal to dissolve Parliament amid speculation of a possible Cabinet reshuffle.

Its chairman Datuk Mustapha Sakmud (pic) said any Cabinet vacancies could be addressed by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim through existing procedures without dissolving Parliament.

He said Anwar should instead be allowed to continue strengthening the national economy and safeguarding public welfare.

Mustapha also said Zahid’s proposal appeared to contradict his earlier position that Umno would remain in the Unity Government until the end of the 15th Parliament’s term in December 2027.

He said the agreement reached after the 15th General Election (GE15) stipulated cooperation throughout the five-year parliamentary term, adding that the remaining period should be used to fulfil the mandate given by the people.
