PETALING JAYA: The Dewan Rakyat speaker’s decision not to vacate the seats of six MPs formerly with Bersatu could strengthen the unity government, but not for long, according to an analyst.
The decision would immediately allow the government to maintain its parliamentary majority but its long-term stability depends on the conduct of the six former Bersatu members, said Awang Azman Pawi of Universiti Malaya.“Continued cooperation can strengthen governance, while ongoing opposition can hinder it,” he said when commenting on the decision by the speaker, Johari Abdul, to maintain stability in Parliament by not compelling the six MPs to vacate their seats.
