Saifuddin disagreed with his then-party colleague Mohamed Azmin Ali, who earlier said that any prime ministerial appointment must go through Parliament in the spirit of the constitution, and was not up to the PH presidential council. “Did we turn our back on the constitution? No,” Saifuddin was heard saying in an audio recording of the meeting.Saifuddin’s view was echoed by Xavier, who said it was up to PH to name the next prime minister.
“Although we decide here, it may be rejected by the public, it may be rejected by the Parliament,” he said. The meeting saw heated exchanges between two factions, one insisting on a clear timeline for Mahathir to step down for Anwar, and the other saying that talks about a transition of power had undermined the coalition’s credibility.
Gobind at this point was interrupted by PPBM Youth chief Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman, who recalled a PH agreement giving full confidence to Mahathir in deciding when to step down.
