Pakatan's arrogance caused Sabah, Sarawak amendment bill to fail

KUALA LUMPUR: It was the arrogance and overconfidence of the Pakatan Harapan government that caused the failure to get two-thirds majority in Parliament for the Federal Constitution (Amendment) Bill 2019 to make Sabah and Sarawak equal partners on Tuesday (April 9), says Batang Sadong MP Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri.

She pointed out that during her tenure as the de facto law minister, she did not suggest such an amendment, because she knew the government would not be able to obtain a two-thirds majority.
