PETALING JAYA: The withdrawal of support by Umno MPs for the Perikatan Nasional Federal Government must be backed by statutory declarations (SDs) to the King, say constitutional experts.

Constitutional expert Assoc Prof Datuk Dr Shamrahayu Abdul Aziz said that in normal times, an MP will be qualified to become the prime minister when he has the majority support of the MPs in the Dewan Rakyat.

“So how do MPs show they no longer have confidence in the PM? So far, the accepted practice is that MPs send or sign SDs,” she said in an interview. Prof Dr Nik Ahmad Kamal Nik Mahmod of the International Islamic University Malaysia said that a mass resignation by Umno ministers and deputy ministers would indicate a loss of support for Muhyiddin’s leadership.

Political analyst Prof Dr Sivamurugan Pandian of Universiti Sains Malaysia said the ball would now be in Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s court to show that he still enjoys the support of the majority of the MPs.
