ANWAR SAYS PEOPLE`S COALITION WILL SENT LETTER TO KING

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 24 (Bernama) -- Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim said
Wednesday that Pakatan Rakyat (People's Alliance) will send a letter to the King
Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin on the transfer of power from Barisan Nasional to the
opposition pact, and the request to convene a special parliament
session.

Anwar, who is Permatang Pauh member of parliament and People's Justice
Party
(PKR) advisor, also reiterated his claim that he had sufficient majority to form
the new government.

"The letter to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (King) is about a peaceful
transfer of power and a special parliament session to table a no-confidence
motion against the prime minister.

"We are still demanding that the prime minister respect the people's rights
to choose us," he told reporters after attending the proceeding related to his
sodomy case at the Sessions Court here Wednesday.

Anwar was accompanied by wife Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, who is PKR
president and their daughter Nurul Izzah, who is Lembah Pantai MP.

On his letter asking the prime minister to convene the special parliament
session, Anwar said Abdullah did not give any response except for a statement he
made through the media that he had rejected it.

Anwar also refused to reveal the names of the MPs whom he claimed to be
crossing over to Pakatan Rakyat.

"I have the majority. The deadline (to form the new government) is no
longer
an issue," he said.
