KUALA LUMPUR, May 8 — Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) does not plan to put forward a no-confidence vote against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in the next Dewan Rakyat sitting, its information chief Datuk Razali Idris said today.

The senator also said that Anwar — who is also the finance minister — should pay less attention to rumour-mongers and concentrate on the country’s economic recovery.

"Neither Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin nor Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainuddin have raised any statement on any number.

"These numbers from sources are just small political gossip. Why does the prime minister want to be affected by these baseless claims?” Razali told reporters at Bersatu’s Aidilfitri open house at Wangsa 118 here.

"I think that the prime minister has to focus on the current economic affairs,” he said.
