DAP has approached Umno's Pengerang MP Azalina Said Othman to discuss reforms and possibly even back her candidacy for Dewan Rakyat speaker.

DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said the party had sent its deputy national chairperson Gobind Singh Deo to meet Azalina over her proposal on recall election, as part of a law package to stop elected representatives from defecting mid-term.

He added that DAP is willing to discuss further with her if she is serious about putting her name forward to replace Azhar Azizan Harun as Dewan Rakyat speaker.
