The government's order to shorten the Dewan Rakyat session this May 18 shows that the Perikatan Nasional government led by Muhyiddin Yassin is not confident that they have a majority, says opposition chief Anwar Ibrahim.

Anwar, who is PKR president, said Covid-19 pandemic should not be made an excuse for a shortened session as parliamentary staff had already set up seating arrangements for MPs as advised by the health authority.
