[KiniNews] PN chief Muhyiddin Yassin has argued that lawmakers should not automatically lose their seats if they are sacked by their parties.

Speaking in Dewan Rakyat, Muhyiddin said under the law, even a convicted MP will not lose their seat until all legal avenues are exhausted.

Meanwhile, Julau MP Larry Sng told the Dewan Rakyat that MPs who win their seat as independents should not be subjected to anti-hopping laws.

Sng said if such laws are used to prevent an independent from joining a party mid-term, then it would be a violation of constitutional rights to freedom of association.
