Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin was not fazed by the flurry of lawsuits coming his way for advising the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to declare emergency.

"Although some are trying to challenge the emergency proclamation in court, I believe that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, as the head of the country, is well-versed with and respects our legal process and systems," said Muhyiddin in a televised address today.

Several opposition figures have filed suits to challenge the legitimacy of Muhyiddin's advice to the king on Jan 11.
