Malaysia's Ruling Party To Renew Push For Snap Election

ASIA

Leaders of the wings and divisions of Malaysia's ruling United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) are scheduled to meet at 2pm local time in party headquarters and may renew calls for a quick dissolution of parliament.

  • An unidentified source from the ruling party told Free Radio Malaysia that "this is a large-scale final gathering for UMNO before the elections." It will be attended by Prime Minister Ismail Sabri and party President Zahid.
  • The focus will then move to Thursday, when Ismail Sabri will have his weekly audience with the King. It is unclear if the two will discuss the timing of the next general election this time around, but there will certainly be an opportunity to do so.
  • The Prime Minister will then table Budget 2023 in parliament on Friday. Malaysia Star cited sources noting that Ismail Sabri's talks with the King on Thursday may centre around the upcoming spending plan.
