DPM: Automatic dissolution of Parliament unlikely
 |
Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin believed that Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak will not allow Parliament to dissolve automatically.
"I don't think the prime minister will wait for the end of the five year term to dissolve Parliament.
"I (really) don't think so. (I think) the election will be in a few weeks, this April," he said during Federal Territories 1Malaysia Gathering at Titiwangsa Stadium in Kuala Lumpur today.
According to the Election Commission, Parliament would be dissolved automatically on April 30. The Negeri Sembilan state legislative assembly is already automatically dissolved.
Addressing some 3,000 people, Muhyiddin also criticised Pakatan Rakyat for saying that Umno should be rejected on grounds of having ruled too long.
Muhyiddin said that an experienced government has advantages because it understands the needs of the public.
"Ladies and gentlemen, an older government becomes more energetic. The older, the more stylish. Am I right?" asked Muhyiddin, to thunderous replies from the crowd.
