KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) – Malaysian Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin offered his resigation on Monday but will remain as a caretaker premier, the palace said in a statement, after months of political turmoil caused by infighting in his ruling coalition.
Muhyiddin, who came to power in March 2020, will remain as caretaker until a new premier is appointed, the palace said.
