PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli has called the results of the 15th general election (GE15) is a “blessing in disguise” as it had forced all political parties who were once rivals to sit down at the same table and prioritise the rakyat ahead of their own personal disputes.

Breaking his silence on the unity government for the first time, Rafizi called the results of the GE15 “unique” insofar that no single coalition had managed to secure the minimum 112 majority in the Dewan Rakyat, which had resulted in a hung Parliament for the first time in Malaysian history.

“The political impasse could only be resolved when the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah had decreed for Barisan Nasional (BN) to form a unity government with Pakatan Harapan (PH),” he said in a video on TikTok yesterday (Dec 4).

“At the same time, Perikatan Nasional (PN) had rejected any form of cooperation of PH [with PN chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin signing a document and stating that the coalition did not agree to work with PH].”
