Consider This: Parliament (Part 2) - Will Anwar's Gambit Pay Off?
Earlier today, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim was at the Istana Negara for the much-anticipated audience with the Agong, to prove that he commands the majority support of MPs, as claimed. In a press conference after, Anwar claimed he has the support of more than 120 MPs. Istana Negara, however, issued a statement later, clarifying that Anwar only presented the number of MPs who supported him, without providing a list of names. Nevertheless, the Palace has begun to invite political leaders for an audience with the Agong. Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to Hamidin Hamid, Political Analyst, Universiti Malaya.
