“Let whatever happens in Kuala Lumpur for the sole improvement of our nation’s economy, Covid-19 situation and so forth.
“I care only for the promise of the delivery of the CanSino vaccine to arrive (in) Sarawak as soon as possible and to be given to our people in the very rural (areas),” he said in a statement today.
Earlier today, Muhyiddin resigned as Prime Minister of Malaysia following the loss of majority support in the Parliament.
