Rauf: Just one more Friday left
MASJID TANAH: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh had a simple reply when asked about rumours of the dissolution of the Melaka legislative assembly.
Chief Minister Datuk Seri Ab Rauf Yusoh playfully noted that there is only one more Friday before the Melaka legislative assembly could potentially be dissolved, as he mentioned on September 7. Rumors of dissolution have been circulating in the state over the past week. However, insiders suggest the assembly is unlikely to be dissolved tomorrow, with the earliest possible date being next week, by September 25 at the latest.
This timeline takes into account Rauf's schedule and the Yang di-Pertua Negeri's (Malaysian Governor) trip to Japan. The Governor, Tun Dr Mohd Ali Mohd Rustam, is set to return from Japan on September 29, but has cut his trip short to return earlier. If the Governor grants an audience to Rauf on that day, the state assembly could be dissolved the following day.
