As reported by Benar News on 13 September 2021, the new UMNO-led government has agreed with the opposition on a number of reform measures in an historic pact. In return, UMNO promised that parliament would not be dissolved before August 2022. World Watch Research analyst Thomas Muller comments: "While the reform measures (among them a ban of the frequent practice of so-called political party-hopping) is commendable, it remains to be seen if they really will be implemented. Further, any support for the new "˜Keluarga Malaysia" ("˜Family Malaysia") policy comes at a price, too. Despite the term sounding religiously inclusive, just a few days before, a deputy minister announced that the federal government had drafted four new laws to strengthen Sharia law in Malaysia, among them a law to control the development of non-Muslim religions (Malay Mail, 9 September 2021). Although the Law Minister said that no such proposal had been submitted in the final draft, churches and members of other religious minorities were alarmed and claimed that such a law would contradict the constitutional provisions of Malaysia (UCA News, 13 September 2021). Even though the draft was not accepted this time, it is a sign that religious minorities in Malaysia are facing ever more organized opposition and limitations."
