PETALING JAYA: Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin is not quitting despite the pressure by Umno and other opposition parties for him to do so.

He said today that the issue of him resigning does not arise as he still enjoys sufficient support in the Dewan Rakyat.

Surrounded by a phalanx of ministers including Umno’s deputy prime minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob, Muhyiddin said in a televised address that his government will table a motion of confidence in the Dewan Rakyat in September to test his majority.
