Anwar to respond to Muhyiddin on Indonesia maritime border pacts
He says he will answer the Perikatan Nasional chairman during the Prime Minister's Question Time in the Dewan Rakyat.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim says he will respond to Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Muhyiddin Yassin’s question on the maritime border agreement signed with Indonesia recently in Parliament tomorrow.
Anwar said Muhyiddin's question would be answered during the Prime Minister's Question Time.
"I will answer in Parliament and let him (Muhyiddin) be there for the debate. I hope he will be present," he said in a press conference after chairing a National Economic Action Council meeting in Putrajaya today.
Muhyiddin had said that the prime minister signed the treaties during Indonesian President Joko Widodo's recent working visit to Malaysia despite maritime experts advising otherwise.
He reportedly urged the prime minister to provide an explanation of the treaties signed.
Meanwhile, on the distribution of seats ahead of the elections in six states, Anwar said discussions between Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional were at the final stage.
The six states involved are Kelantan, Terengganu, Kedah, Penang, Selangor and Negeri Sembilan.
