KUALA LUMPUR: Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures – Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin made this phrase his rule of thumb throughout several days of negotiations and brainstorming sessions with political advisers, aides and experts in governance on the composition of his much-anticipated Cabinet.
It said the unconventional structure would allow some form of flexibility in filling up ministries that require expertise, “unlike the past practice which allowed some rookies to helm important portfolios”.But at the centre of the new face of the executive is a plan to leave the key post of deputy prime minister vacant.
FMT has learnt that Muhyiddin, who was sworn in as the eighth prime minister on March 1 after a week of political turmoil following the collapse of the PH government, will today brief more than 115 MPs under the newly formed Perikatan Nasional coalition on his new Cabinet plan.Over the weekend, several Umno leaders had called for their president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to be made part of the Cabinet, despite Muhyiddin publicly stating that those facing corruption charges will not be considered.
A senior member of PPBM told FMT that the move to exclude these leaders had not been easy, and there was always a fear that the fragile coalition could be rattled.
Yes. muhyiddin_my thinking 'Outside the Box' is also known as CHEATING! 😁 chedetofficial is not crafty enough for this kind... Hehehe.
Agreed, out of the box of integrity into the realm of kleptocracy and the illegal.
all talk cock only. at the end its still power and greed.
Sounds like a unity govt to me, yet paper is trumping it up like its original etc. No one for no.2 post? So PM has absolute control? Lol. We'll see at 5pm.
the community now is beginning to accept back door approach
Interesting. A unity govt? Hahaha.
Regardless of who Brutus pick it's still an illegal government as it's not the people's choice of the government. I refuse to accept this main belakang government
The unelected PM can appoint 110 MPs to his Cabinet if he so desires, but that still doesn't mean that he has the majority in Parliament.
I hope its for shifting sands and not just a sandbox.
