KUALA LUMPUR: No government backbenchers are against the proposed anti-hopping law which will be tabled in the Dewan Rakyat later this week, says Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar.

"After all, they too want such laws," the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department told a press conference held at Parliament's media centre on Monday .

Prior to this, there was talk of resistance from certain quarters in Umno and Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia on the proposed law when the government intended to table it in March. The PSSC, made up of MPs representing several political parties, agreed that party hopping would be dealt through constitutional amendments without the need for separate laws.
