Former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin is attempting to sabotage Ismail Sabri Yaakob-led administration by alleging the government had failed to manage the nation and economy, claimed BN chairperson Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

He added that Muhyiddin, who is also the National Recovery Council (NRC) chairperson, should be aware of the negative consequence of his remark on the country's image.

"His apparent attack on the prime minister feels like sabotage against the coalition government.

"How are foreign investors to trust Malaysia as an investment destination when Muhyiddin says something bad about his own government?" he said on Facebook, adding Muhyiddin should do some self-reflecting as well.
