Party chiefs to sign unity govt agreement on Dec 16, says Fadillah


PUTRAJAYA: Party chiefs who have expressed support for the unity government will sign an agreement on Friday (Dec 16) on their cooperation, says Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.

The Deputy Prime Minister, who is also the Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) chief whip, said the agreement would formalise their cooperation with Pakatan Harapan in the unity government led by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

"Tomorrow, there will be a signing ceremony involving all parties which have agreed to the formation of the unity government. There you (media) can ask about the content of the agreement and its focus," he told reporters after a convocation ceremony of the Institute of Malaysian Plantations and Commodities here on Thursday (Dec 15).

Asked which party manifesto would be implemented by the unity government, Fadillah said this matter was not discussed.

"One of our priorities is related to cost of living," said Fadillah, who is also Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister.

Fadillah said he would be attending a GPS meeting on Thursday to study the content of the agreement.

Meanwhile, he said as far as he knew, the recent announcement of a 20% salary cut only involved Cabinet ministers. – Bernama
