PM alone decides dissolution of Dewan Rakyat, analysts say
Political analysts say the power to dissolve the Dewan Rakyat rests entirely with the Prime Minister and will only be used once his political strategy is strong enough. They reject UMNO's ultimatum to the Unity Government to call the 16th general election early or face a no-confidence vote. The analysts warn the move risks destabilising the government and cannot force the Prime Minister's hand.
