A vote of no-confidence in Parliament against the new prime minister is akin to a no-confidence vote against the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, said PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang.
"Those who want a vote of no-confidence are the ones who don't trust His Majesty... It is up to the public to assess (such behaviour)," said Hadi during a press conference in Marang, Terengganu, today.
Hadi said the Agong has helped resolve a political crisis in the country and was wise to confer with party leaders.
On Sunday, Muhyiddin Yassin was sworn-in as the nation's eighth prime minister after the Agong believed that the former commanded majority support in the Dewan Rakyat.
However, the actual number of MPs who support Muhyiddin cannot be ascertained as yet and would likely only proven when Parliament reconvenes in May.
PAS is the third-largest party in Muhyiddin's government with 18 MPs. The largest is Umno (39) followed by Bersatu (30).
Meanwhile, Hadi said good Pakatan Harapan policies will be maintained by Muhyiddin's new government.
"Impossible promises will not be fulfilled, including our promises," he said.
Hadi said the priority for the new government would be on tackling the rising cost of living, economic problems, social problems, unity and the development of human capital. - Mkini
