Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail has always said that if her husband were to be the prime minister, she would resign as deputy. If that was the plan all along, then why didn’t she resign as the MP of Pandan and let Anwar run there instead?
If Anwar loses in the Port Dickson, it will probably prove that his prime time may be up, but Anwar is still popular figure and seen by many as the one who really started it all. So it could go either way.
It may not be illegal for a member of parliament to intentionally vacate his or her seat in order to allow another person to take the seat, but is it unethical?
