Bayan Baru MP Sim Tze Tzin has proposed that Parliament sit for 180 days in a year in order to have enough time to push through the reforms proposed by de facto Law Minister Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar.
"I would like to call upon the minister to immediately increase Dewan Rakyat sitting to 120 days and Dewan Negara sitting to 60 days," he said.
He noted that with Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob's government coming to power at the tail end of the term, there is little time left to push for the reforms.
Parliament is expected to expire in July 2023 which means there are less than 22 months left to the current government's tenure.
