Prime minister-in-waiting Anwar Ibrahim says the Pakatan Harapan presidential council should decide the leadership transition, urging all parties to stop speculating.

In a report published by The Malaysian Insight portal, Anwar is quoted as saying the transition date should be the subject of a harmonious discussion between Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad and him.

“There are views that the transition date should be set, but as agreed it is a matter for discussion between the prime minister and me, or the PH presidential council.
