BANGI – Tabling the motion of confidence for Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim at the Dewan Rakyat session is a sensible move to confirm his legitimacy as prime minister, says PKR vice-president Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

He said the move will also resolve further disputes made by certain parties such as those the previous administration had faced.

“However, if it (confidence vote) is not tabled, we still need to table the budget, and the budget itself can be considered as a confidence vote,” he told reporters today after officiating at the closing ceremony and prize presentation of the Masiswa Networking Games 2022 Championship at Universiti Tenaga Nasional here.

In his maiden press conference after his swearing-in ceremony as Malaysia’s 10th prime minister last Thursday, Anwar said the first agenda of the 15th Parliament assembly sitting on December 19 would be the tabling of a confidence vote to put questions about his legitimacy as prime minister to rest. – Bernama, November 27, 2022
