PETALING JAYA: The upcoming Dewan Rakyat proceedings will be extremely important because it is an opportunity to introduce laws and policies to assist Malaysians who are economically affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, say Opposition MPs. In May last year, the Dewan Rakyat sat for one day on May 18. Takiyuddin said the Federal Government constantly upholds the views of the King in all matters relating to the country's administration, including those on parliamentary proceedings. Parliamentary proceedings were currently put on hold since the Emergency was proclaimed earlier this year to combat Covid-19. Calls for Parliament to reconvene has been growing momentum after the King met the heads of political parties and said that the Dewan Rakyat should reconvene immediately last month.
