PN to don armbands in Dewan to protest speaker’s 'Bersatu 6' decision
Perikatan Nasional chief whip Takiyuddin Hassan said they want to express their disappointment and dissatisfaction with Dewan Rakyat Speaker Johari Abdul’s decision on the six seats.
Kuala Lumpur: All opposition MPs will wear white armbands in the Dewan Rakyat from Monday to protest against Speaker Johari Abdul’s decision not to vacate the six seats held by former Bersatu members.

At a press conference in Parliament today, Perikatan Nasional chief whip Takiyuddin Hassan said this was to express their disappointment and dissatisfaction with Johari over his decision.

“This is a ‘black decision’ that can ruin the nation and our (parliamentary) system,” the Kota Bharu MP and PAS secretary-general said, borrowing a phrase Johari had used in July 2022 when he was still the Sungai Petani MP.

Johari had decided not to vacate the seats held by the six MPs who recently ceased to be members of Bersatu. They had pledged support for Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim last year.
