PETALING JAYA: Umno vice-president Ismail Sabri Yaakob should offer the same institutional reforms proposed by Muhyiddin Yassin before his resignation if he gets appointed to the top post, said electoral reform group Bersih 2.0.

It said Ismail could and should offer what Muhyiddin had proposed as a sign of goodwill and to signal that he is practising the “new politics” that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong urged the parties to do.

After a two-hour audience with the King on Tuesday, PKR president Anwar Ibrahim revealed that the King had called on leaders to work together to address the Covid-19 and economic crises.


The King and his deputy, the Sultan of Perak, gave an audience to leaders from PKR, DAP, Amanah, Umno, PAS and Pejuang following Muhyiddin’s resignation as the prime minister on Monday.

Before that, on Aug 13, Muhyiddin had made an overture to all parties, proposing a framework for bipartisan political cooperation. He suggested several reforms, including equal annual allocations for all MPs regardless of which party they belonged to.
