PUTRAJAYA – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, together with unity government MPs, today attended a briefing session at the Seri Perdana Complex ahead of the Dewan Rakyat sitting tomorrow. 

Also present at the three-hour briefing session which began at 9.30am were Deputy Prime Ministers Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof, as well as cabinet members. 

Kapit MP and Public Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi said that in the meeting, the prime minister emphasised the need for MPs to attend the Dewan Rakyat sitting and reminded them to be ethical in their debate. 

“The prime minister reminded us on attendance, that the debate must be good and with basis. There was also a briefing by the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Legal and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said regarding questions and bills. 

“The prime minister also reminded us to maintain quorum (in the Dewan Rakyat),” he said. 

His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, King of Malaysia, will be making his inaugural address in Parliament for the opening of the first meeting of the third session of the 15th Parliament tomorrow. 

Based on the calendar on the Parliament’s official website, this sitting will last for 19 days with the main focus to be the debate on the royal address by MPs from February 27 to March 7 and then the winding-up by the relevant ministries for four days starting March 11. 

Meanwhile, Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said the prime minister reminded MPs to continue playing the role of conducting checks and balances throughout the Dewan Rakyat session.

“Anwar also wants us to focus on the issues of the people’s interest, as well as problems and issues in our constituencies,” he said in a statement issued after the briefing.

He said MPs were also told to participate in the debates in Parliament by carrying out thorough preparations. – February 25, 2024
