PETALING JAYA: Umno Youth wants a wartime unity government to be led by a "non-controversial, non-threatening" interim prime minister with no long-term aim of building a political power base.

Its chief Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said if Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin resigns on Monday (Aug 16) after losing majority support as stated under Article 43 (4) of the Federal Constitution, the power to appoint a new prime minister will be in the hands of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong pursuant to Article 40 (2) (a) of the Constitution.
