The motion to remove speaker Mohamad Ariff Md Yusof has been approved with 111 votes in favour, 109 against while one MP was not in attendance.

Deputy Speaker Rashid Hasnon, who is the Batu Pahat MP, did not vote as he was chairing the proceedings.

The proceedings will break for lunch until 2.30pm after which there will be a motion to replace Ariff with former Election Commission (EC) chairperson Azhar Azizan Harun.

This motion is seen as a proxy confidence vote for Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and it appears that he has passed this test.

In the previous Dewan Rakyat sitting, Muhyiddin had the razor-thin majority support of 113 MPs in the 222-member House.

Since then, Shahruddin Md Salleh (Ind – Sri Gading) had quit the government and will likely side with the opposition but this is cancelled out by Jugah Muyang (Ind – Lubuk Antu) quitting PKR to become a PN-friendly independent.
