NSTnation: AzminAli is apparently “reaching out” for support or endorsement from across the political divide for Dr Mahathir to remain as prime minister.
The “clandestine” meeting followed the protracted controversy over the country’s premiership and other events.
Azmin is apparently “reaching out” for support or endorsement from across the political divide for Dr Mahathir to remain as prime minister. The request was met with “uneasy looks”, aimed at Azmin who “was dead serious”, said the source. Sembrong MP Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein denied claims that he had planned and led the meeting. - BernamaFor instance, Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Lokman Noor Adam had issued a scathing statement against former party vice-president Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein for purportedly leading the MPs to the meeting.
The nexus is supposed to take the form of a side pact, akin to the PKR-Pas alliance in Selangor after the disbanding of Pakatan Rakyat. Potentially, it also shows that Azmin may not be alone in this endeavour. It appears that the younger leader, who co-founded PKR, harbours a similar ambition too. Before the change of government, Azmin, as Selangor menteri besar, often engaged the then prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak in parliamentary verbal sparring; observers are saying that he had placed his political clout at the same level as the top executive.
