Muhyiddin appointed PM and 3 news from yesterday

KINI ROUNDUP | Key headlines you may have missed yesterday, in brief.

The King appointed Muhyiddin Yassin to be the next prime minister, who will be sworn in today.

Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Pakatan Harapan joined forces to thwart Muhyiddin. They claim to have 115 MPs. However, two MPs denied backing the interim prime minister.

The deal with Mahathir was struck after a late-night meeting with Anwar Ibrahim.

Muhyiddin claimed that he is now acting Bersatu chairperson, putting him in direct conflict with Mahathir.
