Zahid has 3 options to challenge unity government
KUALA LUMPUR: Pasir Gudang MP Hassan Abdul Karim said Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has three options if he wishes to challenge the unity government without waiting for the prime minister to take action to remove the party from the coalition.
Hassan Abdul Karim, Pasir Gudang MP, claims Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has three possible ways to challenge the unity government. He suggests Umno and BN MPs withdrawing support, ministers resigning from Cabinet, or tabling a no confidence motion during Parliament's Oct 5 session. Zahid is given these options without waiting for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's response to dismiss Umno ministers or remove the party from the coalition.
The unity government is not a formal coalition and can be dissolved by any party at any time. Anwar, indebted to Umno, is unlikely to dismiss them or remove them from the government. It's disrespectful to make threats before the 2026 Umno General Assembly where the public is watching. Instead, Rafizi Ramli's resignation on his own terms is a better example.
Zahid emphasizes that the country's 33 million citizens matter, not just the three million who belong to Umno.
