Sulaiman Md Ali said the letter advising Malacca Governor Mohd Ali Rustam to dissolve the state assembly was sent when he was still the chief minister.
“My letter to Tun (Ali) was when I was still the CM. So, I handed it over to Tun (Ali) and it was up to him (to dissolve the state assembly).
“Everything is according to the rules and legislation, so if anyone is not satisfied, go to the relevant parties,” he told reporters after handing over food baskets to the management of the Nurul Hidayah Mosque in Batu Berendam, Malacca, today.
Meanwhile, Sulaiman said he had to postpone the presentation of the 2022 Malacca Budget to next week due to the current political crisis.
The Election Commission received the official notification on the dissolution of the Malacca State Legislative Assembly on Oct 4 from State Assembly speaker Ab Rauf Yusoh.
Based on Article 19 (4) of the Malacca State Constitution, a state election must be held within 60 days after the dissolution of the state assembly.
