KUALA LUMPUR - Barisan Nasional (BN) may request for a postponement of their royal audience with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah that was scheduled at 10.30am today.
However, whether the coalition will truly indeed request for the delay was something that BN treasurer-general Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Hussein has kept mum on.
"It's not our habit to talk in public. Whether or not we request a postponement, you all will know tomorrow," said Hishammuddin after attending the BN Supreme Council meeting here last night.
Meanwhile, MIC deputy president Datuk Seri M. Saravanan reiterated that BN still maintained its decision not to support any coalition to form the Federal Government.
"We hope it (the royal audience) can be postponed....don't know if it's possible or not. We don't want to form the government, but to state our stand (during the audience)," he said.
Earlier today, Al-Sultan Abdullah summoned the 30 BN MPs for an audience at Istana Negara individually after a lengthy meeting with the chairmen of Pakatan Harapan (PH) and Perikatan Nasional (PN); Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin yesterday. - BERNAMA
