Pemimpin Pakatan Rakyat akan mengadap Yang di-Pertuan Agong sekiranya Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi enggan bertemu mereka untuk membincangkan peralihan kuasa secara aman daripada Barisan Nasional.
Ketua Penerangan PKR Tian Chua berkata, langkah ini akan berlaku "dalam tempoh 24 hingga 48 jam".
"Kita telahpun berkata, kita mempunyai yang jumah (ahli parlimen) yang cukup, dan (Datuk Seri) Anwar (Ibrahim) baru tadi mendedahkan bahawa kita mendapat lebih daripada 31 ahli parlimen BN," kata Tian, merujuk sidang akhbar penasihat PKR itu jam 2 petang tadi.
Sekiranya mereka bertemu Abdullah tetapi beliau enggan meletak jawatan, Tian berkata Pakatan mungkin mendapat campur tangan Yang di-Pertuan Agong Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin untuk meyakinkan baginda berbuat demikian.
"Seboleh-bolehnya, kami akan cuba mengelak membabitkan Yang di-Pertuan Agong," kata Tian ketika dihubungi.
'Sudah ada 116 MP'
Awal pagi ini, agensi berita AFP memetik bendahari PAS Dr Mohd Hatta Ramli sebagai berkata, Pakatan Rakyat akan menghadap Yang di-Pertuan Agong bagi mendapatkan mandat untuk memerintah, sekiranya Abdullah enggan bertemu mereka.
Menurutnya, isu pelantikan perdana menteri dan pertukaran kerajaan membabitkan peranan baginda.
Dr Hatta mendakwa, Pakatan kini mendapat sokongan daripada 116 ahli parlimen - ini bermakna 35 ahli parlimen kerajaan telah menyertai Pakatan.
Dalam sidang akhbar hari ini, Anwar berkata, beliau telah mendapat lebih 31 ahli parlimen daripada BN, jumlah yang diperlukan untuk menubuhkan kerajaan baru dan menggesa Abdullah supaya tidak menguatkuasakan undang-undang darurat bagi menghalang peralihan kuasa.
Anwar bagaimanapun tidak mendedahkan nama ahli-ahli parlimen BN terbabit.
Selepas pilihanraya umum 8 Mac lalu, Anwar telah menetapkan 16 September sebagai tarikh untuk menarik sekurang-kurangnya 30 ahli parlimen kerajaan menyertai Pakatan untuk membolehkan beliau menubuhkan kerajaan baru.

The sitting Prime Minister refuses to acknowledge let alone to accept the FORMAL & PUBLIC declaration of the Leader of the Opposition that Anwar Ibrahim has the Majority of the MPs of the Dewan.
The Practice, Tradition and Convention of Parliamentary Democracy requires the sitting Prime Minister either to motion a Vote of Confidence [not No Confidence] in the Dewan .
The sitting PM is unrelenting and even refuses to meet the Leader of the Opposition to discuss for the Smooth Transition of Power.
This BEHAVIOUR of the PM is most unbecoming and goes against the very principles and spirit of Parliamentary Demiocracy.
[eg. Tony Blair don't go around howling I have a Majority of supprters to oust say, Margaret Thatcher.
In the Traditions of Westminster Palace, due respect is accorded to the Leader of the Opposition when he formally makes a PUBLIC Declaration.
This applies to almost ALL the Mature and Civilised Parliaments of Canada, Australia, New Zealand and England and a few other countries.]
Normally, upon acknowleding and accepting the PUBLIC DECLARATION, the sitting PM would either RESIGNs forthwith or calls the sitting of the House for a Vote of Confidence.
Pak Lah refuses to do all this, I suppose beign IGNORANT and UNEDUCATED in the ways of Parliamentary Democracy. [cannot balem them having used to 50 of UMNO rule, juts like PLO & Hamas, Secularists and Erdogan in Turkey and even Mugabe & Tvengarai of Zimbabwe].
It is also the normal Practise, Traditions and Convention [ie. based on 600 years of precendents of the English Parliament, particularly th emodern version];
the Leader of the Opposition can seek an Audience with the Yang DiPertuan Agong informing him that he, Anwar Ibrahim has the UNEQUIVOCAL and CONSENTED Support of the Majority of the MPs of the Dewan.
Constitutional, the Agong is oblighed to appoint the Leader of the Opposition as the Leader of the House[Dewan].
Whereupon, the Leader of the House calls for the sitting of Parliament and 2 things can happen, either Pak Lah calls a motionof No Confidence against the Leader of the House or the Leader of the House calls for the motion of Confidence in the New Government.
Pak Lah is automatically dismiss as the sitting Prime Minister and the Leader of the House [Dewan] is hereby the new Prime Mnister.
He can then, appoint a New Government and Cabinet.
This is the Mature and Civilised form of Parliamentary Democracy , not like some Kampung PM of a Kampung Parliament.
Afterall, a Human Civilisation has never been erected from some rural, parochila Kampung settlements or Kampung Community.
As for Malays, they must learn that Civilisation is build from urban, city dwellings and habitation , just what the Prophet did with Yathrib and calling it al Madinah.
This Kampung PM & Kampung Parliament business must be removed into oblivion and does not have aplace in the affairs of Modern Civil Society.
