DAP wants Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin to stop being distracted by politics and focus on improving the government's response to the third wave of Covid-19 infections.

The party's secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said the focus should also be uniting Malaysians in supporting the frontliners to win the battle against Covid-19.

"Instead of focusing on political survival by enticing over MPs with GLC positions, including the plum position of the Petronas chair, and even dangling the prospects of ministerial posts with a cabinet reshuffle, time and effort should be spent by the prime minister on correcting his government failures on the Covid-19 crisis.
