00:00Perikatan Nasional Chairman Muhyiddin Yassin says the coalition has valid reasons to reject
00:06the draft Memorandum of Understanding on Equal Allocations for Opposition MPs.
00:12Muhyiddin, the Bersatu president, said the conditions imposed by the government in the
00:16draft document were too strict and unfair.
00:20He described the conditions as so strict that compliance would feel like they would have
00:24to surrender everything to Pakatan Harapan for merely RM200,000 or RM300,000.
00:30On Saturday, it was reported that Syed Sadiq Syed Abdul Rahman had agreed in principle
00:36to several terms of an agreement under which development funds for his constituency would
00:40be released.
00:42Deputy Prime Minister Fadhila Yusof said Syed Sadiq was the only one who had responded and
00:47submitted a formal letter on the matter.
00:50Meanwhile, Muhyiddin also said that during PN's time in government, opposition MPs had
00:55been given allocations unconditionally.
00:59He said by selectively approving funds, the government is clearly discriminating between
01:03those who support it and those who do not.
