PETALING JAYA: The call for “Malay unity” is the only motivation behind Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s administration, according to former Umno politician Tawfik Ismail.

He said the core problem faced by Muhyiddin is the lack of talent available to him in the coalition government that he leads.

“What is the manifesto that motivates this government? So far the public sees the motivation is “Malay Unity”,” he told FMT in an interview.

Tawfik said the state of politics after the “Sheraton Move” in February last year had splintered Malay support further and divided Umno, with progressive Malays becoming increasingly concerned over the running of the country.
