Still work to be done before Parliament dissolved, says minister

There is still much to be done and every individual in the government has the responsibility to work with the leadership of Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob, Communications and Multimedia Minister Annuar Musa says.

Annuar said the government was focused on working to achieve its agenda of helping the Malaysian Family, especially as they face the current crisis of the rising prices of goods.

"Our main focus now is to continue to work and serve the people. Everybody has taken the responsibility to work together with the prime minister and government and to focus on how we can help Malaysians in general during this difficult time.

"When the time arrives, and the time is right for the prime minister to dissolve Parliament, then of course we can go back to the people. But for now, the prime minister is very committed and making efforts to help Malaysians as they go through tough times," he told reporters in Serdang yesterday.
 
Annuar, who is also Ketereh Umno chief, was commenting on Ismail's statement that his government was always prepared to face any possibility, including holding the 15th general election early, should Perikatan Nasional (PN) wish to withdraw its support.
 
PN is made up of Bersatu, PAS, Gerakan, Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku (STAR) and the Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP).

Meanwhile, though, Annuar said there was no issue of PN withdrawing its support for the government.

Although there were reports that the PN coalition planned to withdraw its support, he said PN was still  part of the government.

"Despite the various reports, one thing certain is, PN is still very much a part of the government. This is not an issue anymore," he said.
