Agong’s call for ‘new political landscape’ code for end to political fighting - superadmin - 08-19-2021 Agong’s call for ‘new political landscape’ code for end to political fighting, say experts KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 19 — The Yang di-Pertuan Agong's message for politicians to create a “new political landscape” was an indication for them to not embroil Malaysia in further uncertainty, according to analysts. They interpreted the Agong's call, which PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim revealed following Tuesday’s audience, to mean he wanted the country’s extended political crisis to end with the selection of the ninth prime minister. As the next administration will again be a coalition government with a slim majority, it would be as vulnerable to a loss of support as had brought down the Perikatan Nasional. “The King was either advising or admonishing the political leaders, in a sense telling them that, ‘I will make a decision to appoint whoever is the prime minister, but please after that don’t fool around anymore, and don’t try to rock the boat anymore,” suggested Oh Ei Sun, senior fellow at the Singapore Institute of International Affairs. - More -
