PM Anwar Challenges Opposition To File Motion For Vote Of No Confidence In Dewan Rakyat


Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim challenged the opposition to file a motion for vote of no confidence against him at the Dewan Rakyat session this October.

The PKR president said the opposition should follow the law and not just play on sentiment or just go around shouting for him to ‘step down’ from that position.

‘There are 30 people telling Anwar to step down (from the position of Prime Minister)…what do they think, this country has no rules, no law, no system (Parliament)

‘To urge someone to step down, please file a motion for vote of no-confidence in the Dewan Rakyat session this October… even if the motion is late, I will approve it,’ he said while speaking at the Keadilan Gathering: ‘Suara Rakyat Suara Keramat’ here today.

The gathering themed ‘From Reformasi to Malaysia Madani’ and held at the Axiata Arena in Bukit Jalil was also attended by the Prime Minister’s wife Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, PKR Secretary-General Fuziah Salleh, PKR Information Chief Fahmi Fadzil and almost
10,000 people.

The Prime Minister said the actions of the opposition leaders were also seen as trying to influence supporters with the sentiment of dismissing him as Prime Minister recklessly.
