Mahathir, 94, resigned this afternoon after the top brass of Barisan Nasional, Bersatu, PAS and a group of MPs led by former PKR deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali met last night for a "special meeting" to form a new political coalition to replace the current Pakatan Harapan administration and exclude Anwar.
“Agong has summoned Tun Dr Mahathir to Istana Negara at 5pm, please be there.”
“The people must be prioritised, not the politics of power struggle. The people are in power, not si pencatur kuasa (power broker)."
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad had resigned as Prime Minister, according to a statement from the Prime Minister's Department today.
“No announcement. No press conference tonight.”
"We are shocked today by the developments, it is a betrayal as there was a promise…”
“As far as I know Datuk Seri Azmin Ali has come out of PKR and the possibility of Bersatu coming out of Pakatan Harapan.”
The law maker for Teluk Intan said that “Any ‘backdoor government’ without mandate from the people is a betrayal to the country and the people.”
Aide says that the audience was “scheduled a long time ago”.
