Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim stated that he has not received any details regarding the resignation of Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Ewon Benedick.
Anwar informed reporters that Ewon attended the Cabinet meeting he chaired, saying "Not yet" when asked if he had received any information on the resignation.
He expressed his willingness to resign from the Cabinet if the Attorney-General's Chambers files an appeal against the High Court's decision affirming Sabah's constitutional right to a 40 per cent revenue entitlement.
Ewon's potential resignation is based on his pledge, as stated by Upko sec-gen, which is rooted in integrity rather than a threat.
