Today's headlines of interest and The resignation of Mahathir, 94, broke apart a coalition with old rival summaries as extracted from the Anwar Ibrahim, 72, that had scored a surprise election victory in 2018, and international and local media. was not part of a pre-election promise that Mahathir would eventually cede power to Anwar. The decision, which Mahathir did not explain, followed weekend talks between members of his coalition and the opposition on forming a new government. The political turmoil, together with alarm in the region over the spread of the new coronavirus, sent Malaysia's currency, bonds and stock market lower, and drew calls from some quarters for the world's oldest government leader to return. Differences have been simmering between Mahathir and Anwar over delays to the planned transfer of power, presenting some anti-Anwar politicians with a window to try to seek a new coalition. The king accepted the resignation after meeting Mahathir, Chief Secretary Mohd Zuki Ali said in a statement. "However, His Highness has given his assent to appoint Mahathir Mohamad as interim prime minister, while waiting for the appointment of the new prime minister. THE EDGE MARKETS Malaysia’s political uncertainty will dim economic prospects — Fitch NEWS Solutions Malaysia’s long-term economic prospects is likely to be dimmed as a UPDATE result of political uncertainty and increasing polarisation, said Fitch Solutions Group (FSG). The Fitch Ratings Inc affiliate said in a report today that the political instability in Malaysia is shaping up to be a longer- lasting phenomenon than just a temporary issue after the 2018 general Today's headlines of interest and election. summaries as extracted from the international and local media. It noted that the ability to implement sensitive but much-needed reforms to the country’s affirmative action policies, needed to correct inefficiencies and reverse a heavy outflow of talented individuals from ethnic minorities, to especially neighbouring Singapore, will be heavily curtailed. The state of political affairs in the country remain a blur after Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s resignation today, with reports indicating that the formation of a new government is on the cards. The Yang di-Pertuan Agong has accepted Dr Mahathir’s resignation as the prime minister, but has appointed him as interim premier until a new prime minister is appointed. According to FSG, two likely scenarios could take place in the following days, which are either that Pakatan Harapan dissolves, and a new coalition forms the government with Dr Mahathir as prime minister, or that there is no new government but Pakatan Harapan dissolves, leading to new elections.

    Contato e-Newsletter Issue: 01/2020 (January - June 2020) #STAY AT HOME #STAY SAFE IN THIS ISSUE ASEAN Activity/Event. AOG Luncheon. Ambassador’s Engagement. Corona Virus Prime Minister’s Special Mes- sage on Covid-19. Mission and Consular Engage- ment. MFA’s Emergency Services. Many more... 1 FOREWORD “Ola a todos (Hello everyone)”, The only highlight for this issue was the visit to the state of Mato Grosso Do Sul by ASEAN Ambassadors and other members of the ASEAN Committee in Brasil- ia (ACB) in February. As Covid-19 started to hit Brazil, Brazil close its land borders and airspace to oth- er countries. Mask wearing was made mandatory in most of the states, while peo- ple are still allowed to travel internally for essential purposes. Over the past months, the Covid-19 outbreak has literally forced all the diplomatic activities in Brasilia to come to a halt. There is no more business as usual for Mis- sion since the beginning of March although Mission is still functioning. Mission continues to provide consular assistance and travel advice to Malaysians in Brazil, Guyana and Suriname through online services as well as in-office ap- pointments. Apart from following closely the pandemic development in the country, Mission also works in concerted effort with the Task Force back home to coordinate ac- tions in support of making arrangements for Malaysians stranded in foreign countries all over the world to return to Malaysia safely. Together with our other Missions in the region, we played a constructive role in offering timely assistance to Malaysians stranded in Argentina and Bolivia to return home on 22 March and 20 April respectively.
