AUGUST 12 — I refer to the report “Simplified: The Tabung Haji RCI report and what it said”.On “...
On August 12, 2026, a special sitting of the Dewan Rakyat occurred regarding the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on the Tabung Haji. The report, released by the Malaysian government on July 29, 2023, had been completed and presented to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (YDPA) on August 30, 2022 – almost three months before the November 19, 2022 general elections.
Opposition lawmakers from PAS and Wawasan staged a walkout during the special sitting on August 11, 2026, while Bersatu MPs, led by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, remained to participate in the debate. The split in the Opposition was evident, with some members abandoning the debate while others remained to contribute.
