Like several other countries utilizing the parliamentary system, Malaysia employs the use of shadow cabinets to hold the government to account, and to serve as a potential alternate government-in-waiting. However, the shadow cabinet is not officially recognised by the government. [1]
On 2 February 2023, Leader of the Opposition Hamzah Zainudin unveiled his shadow cabinet of the Members of Parliament (MPs) of Perikatan Nasional (PN). [2] However, Hamzah later clarified that list is a 'portfolio committee' instead of a shadow cabinet. [3]
The committee or shadow cabinet was criticised for its lack of inclusivity as the list is dominated by a single race. [4]
