Muhyiddin and Perikatan are merely continuing what Mahathir and Pakatan started


Whatever Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and the Perikatan Nasional government is doing today is an extension or continuation of what interim Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad and the Pakatan Harapan government implemented in February 2020. It was not opposed or protested in February 2020 so why make so much noise now?

NO HOLDS BARRED

On 28th January 2020, WHO officially announces the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic (READ HERE).

On 24th February 2020, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad resigns as Prime Minister and is asked to stay on as the interim Prime Minister (READ HERE).

On 27th February 2020, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, as interim Prime Minister, announces a RM20 billion Covid-19 economic stimulus package (READ HERE).

On 1st March 2020, Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di-Pertuan Agong swears in Muhyiddin Yassin as the new Prime Minister (READ HERE) — after Mahathir rejects Pakatan Harapan’s appeal to withdraw his resignation and to stay on as Prime Minister.

Was the RM20 billion Covid-19 economic stimulus package announced by the interim Prime Minister of Pakatan Harapan brought to Parliament to be debated and approved by Parliament?

Why did Pakatan Harapan (and Muafakat Nasional-Barisan Nasional) not protest and oppose the 27th February 2020 RM20 billion Covid-19 economic stimulus package and insist that Parliament must first be summoned to debate and approve the budget?

Today, they insist that Parliament must sit to debate and approve the Covid-19 economic stimulus package. In February 2020, they did not oppose or protest the Covid-19 economic stimulus package announced by the interim Prime Minister, although it was not debated and/or approved by Parliament. And there was no declaration of Emergency yet at that time to allow this to be done.

Pakatan Harapan is playing games with the rakyat. The problem is the rakyat mudah lupa so they can get away with it.
