KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia’s king met parliamentarians for a second day on Wednesday to try to end political turmoil by finding someone able to form a government or by calling a new election after Mahathir Mohamad’s shock resignation as prime minister.
“It appears that any government coalition will have PH,” Ong Kian Ming, one parliamentarian from the group told Reuters. While some politicians have openly voiced support for Mahathir to stay in office, it was unclear whether enough of them would give him their backing at the meetings with the king to allow him to stay on.
“We expect the heightened uncertainty arising from the political crisis in Malaysia to remain over the coming weeks, given a likely prolonged period of intensive politicking,” said Fitch Solutions, an economic analysis company.
