Muhyiddin in a sentence

Muhyiddin was the second former leader to be charged after ex-Prime Minister Najib Razak, who was hit with multiple charges after he lost in 2018 general elections.

On Mar 2, Pejuang president Mukhriz Mahathir said that he had sent a letter to Muhyiddin after the party’s central executive council had conducted reviews and evaluated all its options for political cooperation.

The Star reported on Monday that the prosecution alleged that Muhyiddin abused his position as Bersatu president to receive bribes of RM5 million from Bukhary Equity Sdn Bhd which were deposited into Bersatu’s bank accounts.

Prosecutors claim that Muhyiddin accepted 232.5 million ringgit ($51.4 million) in bribes for his party Bersatu.

Several police reports were lodged against Muhyiddin Yassin for purportedly questioning the role of Malaysia’s king in the formation of the government following the 15th General Election (GE15) in November 2022.

A few days later however he and GPS MPs changed their support to Muhyiddin after Dr Mahathir resigned as Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) chairman.

After the ‘tahlil’ and ‘talkin’ recitations, Tunku Azizah poured scented water over Tun Rahah’s grave, followed by Muhyiddin, Najib and his family members.

Although Mahathir and Anwar announced on Saturday that they had joined hands again, the palace said in a statement the king made his decision on the basis that Muhyiddin Yassin possibly had the support of a majority in parliament.

Although Mahathir and Anwar said they had reunited on Saturday and now had majority support, the king announced Muhyiddin as the candidate.

Amanah deputy president Salahuddin Ayub, a Pakatan Harapan (PH) component, said they will be appealing to the Agong over his decision to appoint Muhyiddin as the prime minister.

An acquittal could turn public sentiment against Muhyiddin, and encourage the opposition to challenge the ruling coalition's two-seat majority in parliament.

Analysts had said that an electoral loss for Muhyiddin in Sabah could spell disaster for his government.

Annuar is also a party leader of the United Malays National Organisation, which Muhyiddin counts among his biggest supporters.

Answering a reporter’s question, Muhyiddin says that he does not have much to comment on the issue as his focus is on the nation in bracing the pandemic and economic recovery.

Anwar’s audience today was to convince the Agong that he has enough support from MPs in the Dewan Rakyat to take over the running of the government from Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s Perikatan Nasional.

At a press conference on Sept. 23, Anwar declared he had secured a “formidable” parliamentary majority to topple Muhyiddin’s government, which has been clinging to a razor-thin advantage in the national legislature since coming to power in early March.

Azmin, Muhyiddin, along with leaders from Najib’s party, the Islamist party and two other parties from Borneo island, reportedly met Sunday with Malaysia’s king to seek his backing.

Bersatu president and Malaysian Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said a committee headed by Rais Yatim has been set up to study the matter and present its findings to the party’s Supreme Council.
