Ruhanie, the former Barisan Nasional Backbenchers Club (BNBC) chairperson, added that some 200 supporters had attended the meeting, including some of the staunch supporters of Umno vice-president Mohd Ali Rustam.

He said that Abdullah is expected to announce his decision to stay on at the BN special supreme council meeting scheduled for 3.30pm this afternoon.

The premier, who took over the reins of the party and nation in 2003, has come under intense pressure to step down since the ruling coalition's dismal showing in the March 8 polls. - malaysiakini.com

It's never easy now for me to resign
Without finishing big plans in my design
Haven't you all seen my early warning sign
What you actually get is what I personally assign
