"I will answer in Parliament and let him (Muhyiddin) be there for the debate. I hope he is present," he said in a press conference after chairing the National Economic Action Council (MTEN) meeting here, today.

Muhyiddin claimed that the prime minister signed the treaties during Indonesian President Joko Widodo's recent working visit to Malaysia despite maritime experts advising otherwise.
