Research: 65% of M’sians Say Muhyiddin Is Their Prime Minister Of Choice

Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin is the Prime Minister of choice and receives the highest support from Malaysians according to a report from Emir Research.

According to the poll, it has been shown that 65 per cent of Malaysians across the states except in Penang chose Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

The distribution of votes for the independent candidate with the largest percentage was focused within Wilayah Persekutuan. It can be said that the 73 per cent of the female group of respondents and 68 per cent from the urban area showed stronger support for Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

Based on EMIR Research, the only possible explanation for the highest minority support for Muhyiddin would probably be due to the unanimous yearning for government stability. On the report, the discussant across the FGDs has reiterated on numerous occasions that government stability is the most crucial at these trying times.

As one of the discussants sums it up:

“Many people said that this current government is the government that we need, not the government that you want, not the government that we have chosen”

Meanwhile, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad received 10 per cent of the greatest support and Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim was only rated by eight per cent from the respondents.

The findings in the report were part of the data collected for the research house’s GSI that aims to access public satisfaction towards the imperative government.
