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, a Pasir Gudang MP, has outlined three options for Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to challenge the unity government without waiting for Anwar Ibrahim to take action. These options include withdrawing support for the government, having Umno ministers resign from Cabinet, or tabling a motion of no confidence against the prime minister during the upcoming Parliament sitting on October 5.
The unity government is considered a loose arrangement, allowing any party to withdraw at any time. Anwar Ibrahim, who is indebted to Umno, is unlikely to dismiss Umno ministers or remove the party from the coalition.
