Parti Warisan Sabah (Warisan) president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said he will arrive at a decision soon on the proposal by Warisan’s allies Parti Amanah Negara (Amanah), DAP and Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s faction of Bersatu that he be their choice for prime minister (PM) if the Opposition were to form the government.

The Sabah Chief Minister said he would announce his decision after considering various aspects and consulting with Warisan leaders.

On Saturday, former PM Dr Mahathir had announced that he and PH partners AMANAH and DAP were in favour of Warisan president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal, who is also Sabah Chief Minister, to be the alliance’s choice for PM, Anwar as Deputy PM (DPM) 1 and former Bersatu deputy president Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir as DPM 2 if the Opposition were to wrest Putrajaya from PN.

Yesterday, PKR secretary-general Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail had said the PH component was open to any suggestions on the PM candidate for the Opposition but the matter would have to be finalised by the PH Presidential Council.
