PETALING JAYA: Copies of a leaked 2021 document about an agreement between Umno vice-president Ismail Sabri Yaakob and Perikatan Nasional chairman Muhyiddin Yassin are spreading like wildfire on social media.

After weeks of speculation, it would appear that, based on this document, there was an agreement between the then nominee for prime minister Ismail and his predecessor Muhyiddin for the post of deputy prime minister (DPM) to be given to someone from Bersatu.

While the authenticity of the document has yet to be confirmed, the “reservation” of the post of DPM for Bersatu has led to a number of questions ever since Muhyiddin raised the matter earlier this month.

The questions include whether Umno’s top guns were aware of the deal, and more importantly, whether the party’s “top five” had given their blessings to such an agreement.
