PUTRAJAYA, Feb 27 — Interim prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has arrived at Istana Negara for his audience with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong at 11am.
He had left the Prime Minister's office at 10.30am, sharing his usual trademark smile and waving to reporters who have been staking outside of his office for three days and counting.
State broadcast channel RTM earlier also reported Chief Justice Datuk Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat as having been similarly summoned to Istana Negara.
It is unclear at this point what the meeting with the King is going to be about, ahead of speculation that Dr Mahathir may have the necessary support to form the next government.
Dr Mahathir was scheduled to launch the stimulus package for the nation amid the Covid-19 outbreak this afternoon.
Yesterday, Dr Mahathir, in his first public address since the political turmoil began last Sunday, asked to be given the opportunity to form and lead a non-partisan government covering the entire political spectrum.
He resigned unexpectedly as prime minister on Monday following open speculation of a power grab involving his Bersatu, a rogue PKR faction headed by Datuk Seri Azmin Ali, and several Opposition parties.

WAKE UP. AREN'T WE SUPPOSED TO LEARN SOMETHING USEFUL FROM HISTORY? There had been time we lost our kinship with the people of the southernmost point of South-east Asia......

But not this time! This time we must choose to do it differently

.....for us Sarawakians learn one important thing in our schools that those children in peninsular have missed out, owing to their teachers who perpetually seeing the innocent anak-anak Malaysia through a coloured lense:
Humanity should be our race. Love should be our religion
Again, humanity should be our race. Love should be our religion. We stand neutral forever.
We do not need parasitic and toxic preachers to poison pur mindset...
....and try to brainwash us otherwise
