PH leaders to meet on current political developments
KUALA LUMPUR: Pakatan Harapan (PH) will hold a Presidential Council meeting to discuss current political developments, including the position of Barisan Nasional (BN) in the Unity Government.
KUALA LUMPUR: The Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition is set to convene a Presidential Council meeting to deliberate on current political affairs, with the summit chaired by PH leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim scheduled for 5:30 PM at the Prime Minister's Office in Putrajaya. The key topics purportedly include the role of Barisan Nasional (BN) in the Unity Government, following BN chairman and Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's remarks during his concluding address at the 2026 Umno General Assembly.
In his speech, Zahid urged those advocating for the party's disengagement from the Unity Government to either dissolve Parliament to expedite the 16th General Election (GE16) or introduce a motion of no confidence in the Dewan Rakyat. On Monday, DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke suggested that Anwar convene the PH Presidential Council meeting promptly upon his return from his overseas official visit to address recent political developments and statements deemed detrimental to the nation's political stability.
The meeting also follows the decision to allow former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to complete his sentence under conditional house arrest.
