Anwar sworn in as Malaysia’s 10th PM
PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan chairman Anwar Ibrahim has been sworn in as Malaysia’s 10th prime minister.
The Tambun MP took his oath of office before the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah, at Istana Negara.
Earlier today, Istana Negara said the King had consented to Anwar’s appointment to the top post following discussions with the Malay rulers this morning.
The King had initially asked PH and Perikatan Nasional to form a unity government, but Muhyiddin Yassin, the latter’s chairman, said he turned this down as PN could not work with PH.
While Gabungan Parti Sarawak and Gabungan Rakyat Sabah initially backed Muhyiddin as prime minister, the two Bornean coalitions eventually said they would follow the King’s wish for a unity government.
