PM brushes off talk of political uncertainty

PUTRAJAYA: The Permatang Pauh by-election does not mean political uncertainty in the country, Barisan Nasional chairman and Umno president Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said yesterday.

The prime minister said there was no question mark hanging over the Malaysian economy.

"What political uncertainty are you talking about? What has the Permatang Pauh by-election got to do with political uncertainty?"

He was asked whether the by-election was a reflection of the country's political instability.
