The PKR president asserted in a Facebook Live session today that Pakatan Harapan decided on his role weeks before the former prime minister notified Parliament he intended to table the motion on Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. He pointed out that Pakatan Harapan secretariat chief Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution also wrote to Parliament to inform them of the former’s appointment in April.
“This was not made known yet at the time because we want to inform the rest of the opposition parties,’’ he said.
