KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 14 ― Opposition party DAP today explained its rejection of Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s offer for bipartisan cooperation to stabilise Malaysia and speed up the country’s health and economic recovery during the pandemic.


Its secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said the party has been very clear on Malaysia’s political leadership and what is needed to steer the country forward towards normality post Covid-19.

“DAP is clear on our choice of who should be the next Prime Minister in accordance with PH’s mandate. No one person is entitled to be Prime Minister but qualification must be based on potential capability and capacity to overcome the covid-19 pandemic, economic recession and commitment to institutional reforms to normalize Malaysia as an emerging developed nation,” he said in a statement.

“In other words, the national obsession should not be on who is Prime Minister but what Covid-19 Reset Plan to correct the failures of the current government and an economic normalisation plan to put Malaysia back on track as well demonstrating that we can do more on institutional reforms than what Mahiaddin has offered,” he added, the last referring to Muhyiddin by his given name.
