The Ismail Sabri Case: Politics as Usual in Malaysia's Unity Government The court date for former Malaysian Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob has been delayed due to his hospitalization, sparking concerns about the timing of the trial.
This decision comes just after his party, Barisan Nasional (BN), made significant election gains, which have been seen as a rejection of the current unity government led by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
The charges against Ismail Sabri relate to alleged irregularities involving RM170 million in foreign currencies and gold linked to the Keluarga Malaysia initiative during his tenure.
