In Parliament this morning, Najib asked for permission to make a ministerial statement on the mid-term review of the 9th Malaysia Plan but he was denied the opportunity.
The Members of Parliament from Pakatan Rakyat opposed it on the ground that Najib had missed the boat. According to them, Najib should have made his speech last week when he seconded the prime minister’s tabling of the mid-term review.
When the Speaker of the house insisted in allowing Najib to speak, all the Pakatan Rakyat MPs protested by walking out of Parliament.
