Earlier, Bernama had reported Ismail Sabri as saying that he would discuss matters related to the dissolution of Parliament in order to make way for the upcoming general elections (GE15) with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong only if there was time.
“Not really sure if we will discuss it (dissolution of Parliament) or not.
“If the discussion on Cabinet matters takes too much time or runs until Maghrib prayer, there will be no time to discuss other agenda,” he was quoted as saying.
He reportedly said that the audience scheduled with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong was a weekly routine between them to discuss matters related to the Cabinet before its meeting is held.
Today’s meeting is reported to last longer than usual as Ismail Sabri said that there are many issues to that he wishes to share with the Agong.
