MUHYIDDIN Yassin cannot form a minority government without the Dewan Rakyat first deciding which MP has the confidence of the majority of lawmakers to be prime minister, Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker Azalina Othman Said said today. She was addressing rumours that Muhyiddin might be delaying a vote of confidence so as to garner support from the opposition through a confidence and supply agreement and form a minority government to replace the Perikatan Nasional government. The rumours started after 15 Umno MPs pulled their support, leaving Muhyiddin without majority support.
