Home Affairs Minister Hamzah Zainuddin said he does not know anything about a snap poll which International Trade and Industries Minister (Miti) Azmin Ali had previously said could happen at any moment.

“I don’t know (about any snap polls). I am just a normal minister who takes care of the rakyat and the security and safety of the country,” he told reporters after officiating the handing over of a patrol ship to the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (APMM) in Port Klang today.

Hamzah was asked to respond to Azmin’s statement yesterday, where the latter had said the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government led by Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin had fulfilled the criteria needed to hold snap polls.
