KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 29 — Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) secretary Datuk Marzuki Yahya today refuted party president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin’s claim that he is the party’s acting chairman now.
Marzuki insisted that Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad is still the party’s acting chairman.
Earlier Muhyiddin named himself as the acting chairman, claiming Dr Mahathir’s resignation stands despite him being accepted back into the party almost immediately after his resignation.
In responding to this Marzuki denied Muhyiddin’s statement, citing Articles 16.2.1 and 16.2.2 of Bersatu’s constitution, which highlights the roles of a party president.
He cited Article 16.2.1 which states that a chairman acts as the key leader in the party, responsible for ensuring the smooth operation of the party’s governance and policies, and Article 16.2.2, which authorises the chairman to call Supreme Council meetings and chair the sessions.
“Therefore, in line with the rule of law principle and the party constitution, the only individual who possesses the ultimate power to lead the party is the chairman of Bersatu, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad,” Marzuki said.
Earlier Muhyiddin in his statement attributed his new role as being in accordance with Article 1.6.9 of the party’s constitution.
“According to Article 16.9 of Bersatu’s constitution, if the chairman quits or is sacked, then the president has to assume the role until an election is held to pick a new chairman.
“Bersatu has yet to hold an election to elect a new chairman. Therefore I, as the president, will be the acting chairman of Bersatu until an election is held soon,” Muhyiddin had said.
While Dr Mahathir had resigned from his position on Monday the party had rejected his resignation and convinced him to stay on, to which he agreed.
Much speculation remains as to who will become Malaysia’s eighth prime minister, with Muhyiddin initially in the spotlight, as he has the support of a faction within his party, along with former PKR deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali’s block of independent MPs, Umno, PAS, MCA, MIC and Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS).
However, Dr Mahathir as Bersatu chairman announced earlier this morning that he has sufficient numbers to become prime minister again, following a meeting with Pakatan Harapan.

That is the best for Bursa and for honest foreign investors to trust Malaysia.
No principled and right-minded investors would trust a backdoor government, from by a rojak of kleptocrats, kakostocrats and anto-technocrats.

lagi Moohidin main orang punya perempuan, judge isteri...bastard
2. ALLEGED AFFAIR WITH A JUDGE’s WIFE
Muhyiddin was having an affair with a judge’s wife and the judge sued his wife for divorce because of that.
In his grounds for divorce, the judge stated infidelity as the reason and Muhyiddin’s name was mentioned in the Statutory Declaration.
The judge’s wife, however, wanted to challenge that divorce and if this matter was tried in open court it would have been very embarrassing for Muhyiddin.
So a certain Chinese tycoon arranged to pay the judge’s wife RM2 million as a sort of divorce settlement on the agreement that she would not challenge the divorce.
....AND THIS IS THE PERSON THE MOSQUITO PARTY, BERSATU, SUPPORTED BY (a) THE THIEVES IN UMNO, (b) THE SCUMBAGS IN AZMIN ALI’s FACTION AND (c) THE HYPOCRITES IN PAS
WANT TO BE MADE THE 8th PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA

beginner58 I beg to differ. Could Muhyiddin become hero to save M'sia? Tun M/Najib proven failed. Maybe Muhyiddin is smarter than them.

MUHYIDDIN YASSIN HAS A LONG HISTORY OF DOCUMENTED CORRUPTION AND BRIBERY SCANDALS TO BE THE 8th PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA
RE: THE STAMFORD LAND SCANDAL WHEN MUHYIDDIN YASSIN WAS MB OF JOHOR
QUOTE
In 1994, Stamford applied to the Johor government for permission to develop a light industrial estate on part of its huge land holdings near the state capital of Johor Baru. However nothing happened during the subsequent four years.
MB JOHOR MUHYIDDIN YASSIN WAS ALLEGED TO HAVE MAFE A PHONE CALL TO STAMFORD HOLDINGS:
“Look, I have this piece of paper in front of me on my desk. All I have to do is sign it and Stamford Holdings will no longer own the4,000 acres of land. Now, do you agree or not to develop the land and I take 70%?” -
Stamford refused.
The following week, they received a letter from the Johor State Government signed by Muhyiddin stating that the government has taken over the land.

...THE DETAILS OF MUHYIDDIN YASSIN’s ABUSE OF POWER
AS JOHOR MM TO BLACKMAIL INVESTORS FOR PERSONAL GREED
Stamford Holdings Sdn. Bhd. is a plantation company registered in Malaysia under the Companies Act and 90% of its equities are owned by the Seet family from Singapore, the Gan family and the Wang family from Malaysia.
In 1994, Stamford applied to the Johor government for permission to develop a light industrial estate on part of its huge land holdings near the state capital of Johor Baru. However nothing happened during the subsequent four years.
In 1998, two Malaysians approached Stamford alleging that they were the Johor Menteri Besar’s (Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin), business associates and that they were able to able to get Stamford ’s application approved promptly.
The two individuals were Syed Mokhtar Albukhary and Datuk Yahya Taib. The meeting was held in Singapore .
The one pertinent condition was that Stamford form a joint venturetogether with them along with Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin wherebyStamford would retain 70% of the shareholdings in this JV company and that the trio would pump in RM1,800,000 (approx RM3,397.50 per acre) into the JV Company to develop 1,766 acres of its 8,310 acres in total land holdings.
In late 1989, Stamford agreed to the proposal and the four parties formed a JV company, which resubmitted a fresh application to theJohor State government to convert the 1,766 acres of plantation landto industrial use. The new application was promptly approved.
When the property was later sold in 1994, the Muhyiddin group's initial investment of RM1.8 million had soared to RM83.2 million(4622%).
Meanwhile in 1992, Syed Mokhtar Albukhary and Datuk Yahya Taib again approached Stamford ’s directors, proposing to develop the remaining 6,544 acres of Stamford 's Johor prime land holdings.
However the conditions were different this time around.
They were willing to pay RM30,000 per acre to Stamford but demanded 70% equity stake.
When Stamford insisted on retaining the original JV conditions whereby they hold 70% equity and that the Albukhary - Taib- Yassin group pay RM70,000 per acre for the 30% equity stake, one of Muhyiddin's associates allegedly warned Stamford’s directors that the land acquisition papers were on the MB’s desk and could be “signed at any time”. Stamford refused
A few days later, Muhyiddin called up Stamford again, and told them:
“Look, I have this piece of paper in front of me on my desk. All I have to do is sign it and Stamford Holdings will no longer own the4,000 acres of land. Now, do you agree or not to develop the land and I take 70%?”
Stamford again refused.
The following week, they received a letter from the Johor State Government signed by Muhyiddin stating that the government has taken over the land.
Conspiracy
In July 1994, the State Government of Johor officially acquired the land on behalf of the Johor Islamic Economic Development Corporation (Perbadanan Kemajuan Ekonomi Islam Negeri Johor) under the Land Acquisition Act.
Stamford Holdings, through its director, Gan Tee Kian, filed the suit in the Kuala Lumpur High Court on February 4, 1995 claiming that Muhyiddin, Syed Mokhtar and Yahya contravened the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act in acquiring the piece of land through the Johor Islamic Economic Development Corporation and sued the trio for damages for alleged conspiracy in acquiring land in Johor through the Land Acquisition Act.
