PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob has given his assurance that the anti-hopping bill will be tabled in the Dewan Rakyat next week, said opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim.

He said the pledge was made when Ismail met him, Amanah president Mohamad Sabu and DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng in Parliament today.

Pakatan Harapan (PH) told the government last month that the memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the two sides would be declared void if the anti-hopping bill was not tabled in the current Dewan Rakyat meeting.

Anwar said PH had told Ismail the MoU would be “automatically cancelled” if the demand was not met.
