KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 12 — The dissolution of Parliament should not be proposed simply because of questions surrounding a Cabinet reshuffle when the government remains functional and commands majority support, said Deputy Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Fuziah Salleh.

She said that after nearly four years of the Unity Government, the country should be able to focus on more pressing priorities, including investment, job opportunities, the cost of living and the long-standing institutional reform agenda.

“That is why I believe the proposal to dissolve Parliament when the government is still functioning and has majority support should not be raised lightly, especially when the original issue concerns only a Cabinet reshuffle.
