The crisis started when several political parties joined forces and tried to form a new government by claiming majority seats in the Dewan Rakyat, the lower chamber of the Parliament of Malaysia, without going through an election. It was accomplished through the withdrawal of the Malaysian United Indigenous Party (Bersatu) from the Pakatan Harapan coalition and through the support of several MPs from the People's Justice Party (PKR) who left the party. The prime minister, Mahathir Mohamad, resigned as a result.
