KUALA LUMPUR: Opposition Leader Datin Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail filed an emergency motion of no confidence against Prime Minister at the office of the Dewan Rakyat Speaker at about 3.45pm Thursday.

After filing the motion, she said there would be no voting involved in the process, as Pakatan Rakyat was not seeking a no-confidence vote.

"We are not hoping for a change in the government but to have our voices heard,'' she said at Parliament lobby.

Asked why she was only doing it now, Dr Wan Azizah said because it was because the situation inthe country has worsened.

"This motion is simply to seek a change within the existing situation,'' she said.
