Political analyst Wan Saiful Wan Jan said the pockets of dissent show that discontent remains despite last week’s sackings, but will not snowball into a movement against the premier without a feasible leader.
Mr Muhyiddin has not indicated that he will challenge Mr Najib.
“Still, the scattered voices of dissent show that Najib cannot solve the controversy just by removing a few people,” Mr Wan Saiful told The Straits Times.
