Next Dewan meeting delayed for review of GDP forecast
The Dewan Rakyat will convene from July 21 to Aug 28 instead of June 23 to July 31. (Bernama pic) PETALING JAYA : The next Dewan Rakyat meeting has been delayed to allow the government to finalise its economic growth forecast in view of the US tariffs, before it is used to prepare the 13th Malaysia Plan. Dewan Rakyat Speaker Johari Abdul's office said the lower house of Parliament will now convene from July 21 to Aug 28 instead of June 23 to July 31. It also noted that 2025 was shaping up to be a busy year for MPs, with various events lined up outside of parliamentary proceedings. This includes meetings by the Public Accounts Committee and other parliamentary select committees, as well as international events. It also said the Dewan Rakyat would convene for a total of 78 days this year, an increase from the 69 days last year. 'The Malaysian Parliament remains independent from any political leanings and always upholds the interests of the people and nation as its main priority,' it said in a statement. Earlier today, PAS's Pasir Mas MP Ahmad Fadhli Shaari questioned the decision to delay Dewan Rakyat proceedings, saying it meant that the lower house would only convene 137 days after its last sitting on March 6. He said this would be the third-longest period of Parliament not sitting, after the May 13 riots in 1969 (648 days) and the Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns in 2021 (195 days).
