00:00 This is the result of the fight against the government.

00:06 Four days of fighting. Four days.

00:09 Opposition MPs have staged a walkout from the Dewan Rakyat

00:15 after Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim was given a last-minute slot

00:18 to thank the President and PAS Yangdi Pertuan Agong for their service.

00:22 At a press conference, Pagoh MP Muhyiddin Yassin said it was unusual

00:26 as the debate on the King's speech was ongoing.

00:29 We see this as a tyranny of the majority.

00:35 Only because they are the majority in parliament,

00:38 they can do whatever they want,

00:40 without following the usual rules that have been implemented for a long time.

00:45 Meanwhile, opposition leader Hamzah Sayyiduddin claimed

00:48 the government was abusing its power by allocating Anwar a last-minute slot

00:52 in the agenda of proceedings.

00:56 If we listen to the King's speech,

00:59 we must follow the rules and procedures.

01:04 Then, we must wait for the time for the Prime Minister to speak.

01:12 But when he does something out of the ordinary,

01:19 we feel that it is a misuse of power.

01:26 Kota Baru MP Takiyuddin Hassan said

01:29 Anwar's speech was designated as a ministerial briefing session,

01:33 but it was not listed on the agenda today.

01:35 Natasha Bust, FMT News.
