KUALA LUMPUR: Perikatan Nasional (PN) has collected statutory declarations (SDs) from more than 112 members of the Dewan Rakyat in support of forming the new federal government, said PN deputy chairman Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang.

“Yes, just wait. We have the numbers, in fact more than enough,” said the PAS president.

“Waiting for an invitation (to Istana Negara), at any time,” he told reporters before leaving the residence of PN chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin at about 2 pm here, today. He had arrived at about 11 am.

Earlier, PN secretary-general Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin had stated that PN had furnished SDs from MPs who gave their support to Muhyiddin, who is also Bersatu president, to be appointed as Malaysia’s 10th prime minister.

Hamzah said the number of SDs submitted exceeded 112, which is the lowest figure to command majority support of MPs in the 222-seat Dewan Rakyat for the appointment of the prime minister under Article 43 of the Federal Constitution.

Yesterday (Nov 20), Muhyiddin was reported as saying that PN will submit the SDs from the parliamentarians today (Nov 20), to prove that the coalition has the numbers to form the new Federal Government.

PN consists of Bersatu, PAS, Gerakan, Parti Solidariti Tanah AirKu (STAR) Sabah and Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP). – BERNAMA
