KUALA LUMPUR – Next week’s Dewan Rakyat sitting has been pushed to September 13, according to a letter sent to all MPs late last night.

The anticipated sitting is expected to see the tabling on a confidence motion by newly minted Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

Now, the Dewan Rakyat’s fourth sitting will be from September 13 to October 12.
