SHAH ALAM: The memorandum of understanding (MoU) that Pakatan Harapan (PH) signed with the federal government last September will be “finished and ended” if the anti-hopping law is not tabled as promised, says DAP’s outgoing secretary-general Lim Guan Eng.

PH had insisted that the government enact an anti-hopping law by this month to stop defections that Lim said had “contaminated the entire democratic process”.

However, law minister Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar said on Friday that the Cabinet had decided that the bill on the proposed law required “further deliberation” with stakeholders from Barisan Nasional and Perikatan Nasional to ensure it could get sufficient support in the Dewan Rakyat.
