Perikatan Nasional (PN) has submitted a letter seeking an official meeting with Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob to discuss several issues raised by the coalition.

The matter was confirmed by its secretary-general Hamzah Zainudin (above) today, who clarified that his previous meeting with the prime minister was an informal one.

“I am a cabinet minister. So, I always meet the prime minister and when I met him last week, it was not official.

"That was a casual meeting where we just chatted, but officially, I have requested a new date for PN representatives to meet and present to him our demands," he said when met after launching a portal for complaints on bullying incidents today.

On August 13, Ismail Sabri said he had a meeting with PN two weeks ago during the last week of the Dewan Rakyat sitting at the Parliament building, which was attended by Hamzah and PN treasurer Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar.

Asked if PN would address the deputy prime minister post in the official meeting later, Hamzah said he would bring up all requests made by PN.
