The door for negotiations regarding the memorandum of understanding (MoU) on allocations for opposition Members of Parliament is not closed, and the government is ready to discuss the matter further, said Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil. Fahmi, who is also the Unity Government spokesman, said the draft MoU serves as a discussion platform and is not a final document. "The door for negotiations is not closed; it is the opposition that has closed it. If the opposition truly wishes to discuss, let's have that discussion without fear. Come and talk. We are ready to talk," he said when speaking at the ministry's September Monthly Assembly here today. Previously, Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin confirmed that Perikatan Nasional (PN) rejected the MoU proposal, claiming it contradicted several matters, including those related to the Federal Constitution, and restricted freedom. Fahmi noted that while he was in the opposition, discussions regarding a similar MoU took place almost every week, and he was tasked with keeping track of matters that had been achieved. "Among our intentions at that time was to address COVID-19 and to implement a number of reforms or changes. Source: BERNAMA News Agency
