Anwar says has more than 120 MPs, will leave it to the King (updated)

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has claimed that he has the support of more than 120 MPs in his bid to be premier and to form the next government.

“It’s more than 120. But because the Yang di-Pertuan Agong will summon the heads of parties, therefore it is rational for us to be patient and give the King space to decide, ” he said during a press conference at the Le Meridien Hotel.
