Lim Kit Siang today challenged the PM Abdullah Badawi to convene an emergency session of the Parliament to determine the legitimacy of the government."Let the parliament be convened to resolve the matter once and for all, whether Pakatan Rakyat has the majority or BN has the majority," Lim told a press conference at the DAP headquarters here.
Opposition leader, Anwar Ibrahim yesterday wrote a letter to Abdullah urging him to convene an emergency session of Parliament to enable a vote of no confidence against the government be tabled.
Abdullah later said that it is not necessary as the Parliament will be back in session after the Hari Raya celebration in October.
"Why is the prime minister running away from a determinative end to this uncertainty," said Lim.
"I call on the PM to reconsider, convene an emergency session of Parliament to resolve this issue once and for all, if Barisan Nasinonal has the majority he will continue to rule and Pakatan Rakyat will accept it, but if Pakatan Rakyat has the majority, let him announce that he will gracefully, orderly and democratically, effect a transition of power," he added.

Well, Pat Lah isnt too sure whether he will survive the vote of no confidence. Also, Pat Lah is uncertain whether the UMNO MPs will be with him or not after what tranpired in the last MKT meeting last night. Read here and here.
Between now and then, Abdullah will be monitoring ground sentiment. If the voices of dissent and opposition from within the rulingad party get louder, the PM will have little choice but to cut short his stay at the top.
cheers.
