The Dewan Rakyat has passed the International Trade and Industry Ministry's RM1.2 billion budget at the committee stage in a bloc vote with 110 votes in favour and 104 against. Six MPs were not present.<br /><br />International Trade and Industry Minister Azmin Ali wrapped up the debate while his nemesis Anwar Ibrahim (Harapan-Port Dickson) was among those who took part in the vote.<br /><br />Azmin was previously the PKR deputy president before quitting the party during the infamous Sheraton Move in February.<br /><br />Losing to Azmin is a significant blow to Anwar, who is under pressure to prove that he has majority support in the Dewan Rakyat.
