KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 29 — Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi does not have any negotiation right on when the next national election should take place since he is not a signatory to the memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the government and Pakatan Harapan (PH), Lim Guan Eng said.
The DAP secretary-general told Utusan Malaysia that the Umno man should respect the agreement the Opposition coalition made with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri, which included holding off the dissolution of Parliament before July next year.
He reportedly added that if there were to be any negotiations to the agreement, including the election date, it should come from the parties that signed the MoU and not the Umno president.
“So Ahmad Zahid, don't take more than a spoonful of gravy. We have to hold on to what is signed unless there is a big issue because the MoU involves the Anti-Party Hopping law, the 1963 Malaysia Agreement, Undi18 and the Covid-19 fund injection.
